[OOZIE-2773] <file> property not working with hive2 action

• Type: Bug
• Status: Open
• Priority: Minor
• Resolution: Unresolved
• Affects Version/s: 4.2.0, 4.3.0
• Component/s: action

Environment

HDP 2.4, Beeline version 1.2.1000.2.4.0.0-169

• Assignee: Unassigned

Description

The beeline client does not consider files linked with the <file> property in Hive 2 actions. The file gets successfully linked to the local appcache directory, however Oozie tries to access the file from the workflow path.

A simple job

<action name="test-action">
  <hive2 xmlns="uri:oozie:hive2-action:0.1">
    <jdbc-url>${jdbcURL}</jdbc-url>
    <script>query.hive</script>
    <file>hive/query.hive#query.hive</file>
  </hive2>
  <ok to="end"/>
  <error to="fail"/>
</action>

fails with the error message:

JA008: File does not exist: /user/koernerc/apps/simple-hive-query-wf/query.hive#query.hive
