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

             Summary: hive CLI shell use of `dirname "$0"` prevents it from being linked from other directories
                 Key: HIVE-6553
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6553
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Remus Rusanu
            Priority: Minor


I tried making /usr/bin/hive a link to /usr/lib/hive-0.14/bin/hive . But the launch fails because:
{code}
bin=`dirname "$0"`
bin=`cd "$bin"; pwd`
. "$bin"/hive-config.sh
{code}

So I used a readlink -f first, to locate the proper script home, and then it works fine.
