Hive Metastore: Failed to get table info from metastore

[jbolesjc]

Hey all,

We are experiencing an issue where the sink connector cannot get the table info of our table in the hive metastore. We do have iceberg.tables.auto-create-enabled set to true but I went and created the table in the hive metastore anyways because this was failing. So the table exists but the sink connector is unable to pull any info from it.

Is there some permissions issue between the local hive:4.0.0-beta-1 running and the local kafka-connect?

The error we receive in the connector is the following: "Failed to get table info from metastore default.iceberg_events"

Wanted to add that we are using the runtime hive v0.6.12 release

[danielcweeks]

It looks like that's an exception from the hive metastore client (thrift exception). I would suspect that the issue is related to connectivity to the metastore (host not resolvable or port issue?).

[k0bayash1maru]

Is your Hive metastore setup for SSL/SASL with PLAIN client auth ? Are you running with Minio ?

• Check your hive-site.xml and/or metastore-site.xml on your hms to see what you have for your SASL

[jbolesjc]

Does not appear that the hive-site.xml has any SASL set up currently.

I am able to ping the IP of the hive container from my kafka-connect container. However I am not able to ping the URI I am passing to the connector config of thrift://hive:10000/

[jbolesjc]

I am not using minio, I am using localstack. If I go ahead and set up PLAIN client auth, what are the connector config keys to pass the username and password with in order to connect?

[tabmatfournier]

@jbolesjc https://docs.confluent.io/platform/current/kafka/authentication_sasl/authentication_sasl_scram.html#kconnect-long , set your properties on the consumer prefixed keys.

[jbolesjc]

As I don't see any out of the box SASL set up with my hms currently I don't think adding a username and password to my kafka-connect is the solution here
