[jira] [Created] (HIVE-6633) pig -useHCatalog with embedded metastore fails to pass command line args to metastore

Eric Hanson created HIVE-6633:
---------------------------------

             Summary: pig -useHCatalog with embedded metastore fails to pass command line args to metastore
                 Key: HIVE-6633
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6633
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HCatalog
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0, 0.11.0, 0.13.0, 0.14.0
            Reporter: Eric Hanson
             Fix For: 0.14.0


This fails because the embedded metastore can't connect to the database because the command line -D arguments passed to pig are not getting passed to the metastore when the embedded metastore is created. Using hive.metastore.uris set to the empty string causes creation of an embedded metastore.

pig -useHCatalog "-Dhive.metastore.uris=" "-Djavax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword=AzureSQLDBXYZ"

The goal is to allow a pig job submitted via WebHCat to specify a metastore to use via job arguments. That is not working because it is not possible to pass Djavax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword and other necessary arguments to the embedded metastore.
