Can't get Kerberos realm for hive jdbc

Question

I am using hive in Kerberos environment, and get the following issue:

beeline> !connect jdbc:hive2://xx.xx.xx.xx:10000/default;principal=hive/[email protected]
Connecting to jdbc:hive2://xx.xx.xx.xx:10000/default;principal=hive/[email protected]
21/01/12 23:00:35 [main]: WARN jdbc.HiveConnection: Failed to connect to xx.xx.xx.xx:10000
Error: Could not open client transport with JDBC Uri: jdbc:hive2://xx.xx.xx.xx:10000/default;principal=hive/[email protected]: Can't get Kerberos realm (state=08S01,code=0)

The special thing for my cluster is that krb5.conf is not in /etc/krb5.conf, instead it is in another location. I have already export KRB5_CONFIG as the new path, but it still doesn't work, what do I need to do for using the custom krb5.conf ? Thanks

Answer 1

Finally found the solution, I can specify the custom krb5.conf via specifying java properties java.security.krb5.conf, e.g. -Djava.security.krb5.conf=/etc/myconf/krb5.conf
