Description

some examples

<property>
      <name>templeton.hadoop</name>
      <value>/usr/hdp/current/hadoop-client/bin/hadoop</value>
    </property>


<property>
      <name>templeton.hcat</name>
      <value>/usr/hdp/current/hive-client/bin/hcat</value>
    </property>


 <property>
      <name>templeton.hive.extra.files</name>
      <value>/etc/tez/conf/tez-site.xml,/usr/hdp/current/tez-client,/usr/hdp/current/tez-client/lib</value>
    </property>


 <property>
      <name>templeton.jar</name>
      <value>/usr/hdp/current/hive-webhcat/share/webhcat/svr/lib/hive-webhcat-*.jar</value>
    </property>
    
    <property>
      <name>templeton.libjars</name>
      <value>/usr/hdp/current/zookeeper-client/zookeeper.jar,/usr/hdp/current/hive-server2/lib/hive-common.jar</value>
    </property>

We should be using paths with version to make sure webhcat is running with the same version client as its running with.

There's a simple solution for this: we use the property hdp.version instead of current. You can see other configs in the same file that depend on hdp.version. hdp.version is tested with other configuration properties, so if we change these current references to hdp.version, we should be good.
