Hi folks, we're seeing an intermittent issue between our Hive 0.13 metastore and mysql instance. After being idle for about 5 minutes or so, any transactions involving the metastore and mysql causes the following error to appear in the metastore log:
2014-06-09 05:13:52,066 ERROR bonecp.ConnectionHandle (ConnectionHandle.java:markPossiblyBroken(388)) - Database access problem. Killing off this connection and all remaining connectio ns in the connection pool. SQL State = 08S01 2014-06-09 05:13:52,068 ERROR metastore.RetryingHMSHandler (RetryingHMSHandler.java:invoke(157)) - Retrying HMSHandler after 1000 ms (attempt 1 of 1) with error: javax.jdo.JDODataStore Exception: Communications link failure The last packet successfully received from the server was 502,751 milliseconds ago. The last packet sent successfully to the server was 1 milliseconds ago. at org.datanucleus.api.jdo.NucleusJDOHelper.getJDOExceptionForNucleusException(NucleusJDOHelper.java:451) at org.datanucleus.api.jdo.JDOQuery.execute(JDOQuery.java:275) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore.getMTable(ObjectStore.java:900) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore.getTable(ObjectStore.java:832) at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor9.invoke(Unknown Source) [full stack trace is below] Subsequent transactions go through fine, however. This only occurs if the metastore has has been idle for a while. We've been looking at the code and the problem seems to lie in the channel between the driver and metastore connection pool. We looked at the wait time configuration settings both mysql and BoneCP. Both of them are set for max value. Our hive 0.12 install uses DBCP for datanucleus.connectionPoolingType, not BoneCP and we don't see these issues there. We are not running Tez. This seems like such a basic issue that we'd thought to check and see if anyone else has encountered it. Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
