------------------------------

             Summary: Failed to create HiveMetaStoreClient object with proxy user when Kerberos enabled
                 Key: HIVE-13384
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13384
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Metastore
    Affects Versions: 1.2.1, 1.2.0
            Reporter: Bing Li


I wrote a Java client to talk with HiveMetaStore. (Hive 1.2.0)
But found that it can't new a HiveMetaStoreClient object successfully via a proxy using in Kerberos env.

===========================
15/10/13 00:14:38 ERROR transport.TSaslTransport: SASL negotiation failure
javax.security.sasl.SaslException: GSS initiate failed [Caused by GSSException: No valid credentials provided (Mechanism level: Failed to find any Kerberos tgt)]
        at com.sun.security.sasl.gsskerb.GssKrb5Client.evaluateChallenge(GssKrb5Client.java:211)
        at org.apache.thrift.transport.TSaslClientTransport.handleSaslStartMessage(TSaslClientTransport.java:94)
        at org.apache.thrift.transport.TSaslTransport.open(TSaslTransport.java:271)
==========================

When I debugging on Hive, I found that the error came from open() method in HiveMetaStoreClient class.

Around line 406,
 transport = UserGroupInformation.getCurrentUser().doAs(new PrivilegedExceptionAction<TTransport>() {  //FAILED, because the current user doesn't have the cridential

But it will work if I change above line to
 transport = UserGroupInformation.getCurrentUser().getRealUser().doAs(new PrivilegedExceptionAction<TTransport>() {  //PASS

I found DRILL-3413 fixes this error in Drill side as a workaround. But if I submit a mapreduce job via Pig/HCatalog, it runs into the same issue again when initialize the object via HCatalog.

It would be better to fix this issue in Hive side.
