             Summary: Impala is not able to list the tables when the logged in user is $USER
                 Key: IMPALA-9270
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-9270
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Frontend
            Reporter: Fang-Yu Rao


Impala is not able to list the tables under the specified database when we log in to the Impala shell as the user $USER. Specifically, this phenomenon could be reproduced by the following steps.
 # Execute "{{$IMPALA_HOME/bin/start-impala-cluster.py --kill}}"
 # Execute the following to start a Ranger-enabled Impala miniculster
{code:java}
$IMPALA_HOME/bin/start-impala-cluster.py \
--cluster_size=3 \
--num_coordinators=3 \
--log_dir=/tmp/ \
--log_level=1 \
'--state_store_args=--statestore_update_frequency_ms=50 --statestore_priority_update_frequency_ms=50 --statestore_heartbeat_frequency_ms=50' \
'--impalad_args=--server-name=server1 --ranger_service_type=hive --ranger_app_id=impala --authorization_provider=ranger' \
'--catalogd_args=--server-name=server1 --ranger_service_type=hive --ranger_app_id=impala --authorization_provider=ranger'
{code}

 # Log in to the Impala shell via "{{$IMPALA_HOME/bin/impala-shell.sh}}" (as the user {{$USER}} by default)
 # In the Impala shell, execute "{{use functional;}}"
 # In the Impala shell, execute "{{show tables;}}"

No table will be displayed after executing "{{show tables;}}" above. On the other hand, if we in Step 3 above log in to the Impala shell as the administrator, i.e., by executing "{{$IMPALA_HOME/bin/impala-shell.sh -u admin}}", we will be able to see the list of tables under the specified database (the database {{functional}} in this case).
