             Summary: Beeline should not prompt for hive user and password when authentication is NONE
                 Key: HIVE-22355
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22355
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Beeline
            Reporter: Mate Juhasz


Beeline - without adding the jdbc url - prompts for username and password in case hive.server2.authentication=NONE, which is possibly pointless and can be misleading for users as any input is accepted.

In addition, Sqoop has dropped hive cli recently in favor of beeline and if there is no authentication set in Hive, Sqoop fails to connect as the process stops waiting for the user/password input. 

I think it would be nice to check the auth type "NONE" before reading unused inputs from the console before this point:
