             Summary: Sentry Service does not use correct classpath when HIVE_HOME environment var is defined
                 Key: SENTRY-430
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-430
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0
            Reporter: Lenni Kuff
            Assignee: Arun Suresh


When HIVE_HOME is set as an environment variable, the Sentry Service will not run with the correct classpath when invoked using "bin/sentry". 

The code below is from "bin/sentry". Note how if HIVE_HOME is defined nothing from lib/server/* is added to the classpath.

As a side note, it seems strange that there even is a reference to Hive in this context. It seems that the sentry service is being executed via Hive when HIVE_HOME is defined. It seems like we should not do this.

{code}
if [[ -z "$HIVE_HOME" ]]
then
  for f in ${SENTRY_HOME}/lib/server/*.jar; do
    HADOOP_CLASSPATH=${HADOOP_CLASSPATH}:${f}
  done
  exec $HADOOP jar ${SENTRY_HOME}/lib/${_CMD_JAR} org.apache.sentry.SentryMain ${args[@]}
else
  _HIVE_CMD=${HIVE_HOME}/bin/hive
  ${_HIVE_CMD} --service jar ${SENTRY_HOME}/lib/${_CMD_JAR} org.apache.sentry.SentryMain ${args[@]}
fi
{code}
