Required field 'client_protocol' is unset

I am using Hive 0.12, and I'm trying the JDBC from apache. When I try to run the code, I get apache.thrift.TApplicationException.

import java.sql.SQLException;
import java.sql.Connection;
import java.sql.ResultSet;
import java.sql.Statement;
import java.sql.DriverManager;

public class HiveJdbcClient {
private static String driverName = "org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver";

/**
 * @param args
 * @throws SQLException
 */
public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException {
    try {
        Class.forName(driverName);
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
        System.exit(1);
    }
    //replace "hive" here with the name of the user the queries should run as
    Connection con =      DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:hive2://localhost:10000/default", "hive", "");
    Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
    String tableName = "testHiveDriverTable";
    stmt.execute("drop table if exists " + tableName);
    stmt.execute("create table " + tableName + " (key int, value string)");
    // show tables
    String sql = "show tables '" + tableName + "'";
    System.out.println("Running: " + sql);
    ResultSet res = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
    if (res.next()) {
        System.out.println(res.getString(1));
    }
    // describe table
    sql = "describe " + tableName;
    System.out.println("Running: " + sql);
    res = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
    while (res.next()) {
        System.out.println(res.getString(1) + "\t" + res.getString(2));
    }

    // load data into table
    // NOTE: filepath has to be local to the hive server
    // NOTE: /tmp/a.txt is a ctrl-A separated file with two fields per line
    String filepath = "/tmp/a.txt";
    sql = "load data local inpath '" + filepath + "' into table " + tableName;
    System.out.println("Running: " + sql);
    stmt.execute(sql);

    // select * query
    sql = "select * from " + tableName;
    System.out.println("Running: " + sql);
    res = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
    while (res.next()) {
        System.out.println(String.valueOf(res.getInt(1)) + "\t" + res.getString(2));
    }

    // regular hive query
    sql = "select count(1) from " + tableName;
    System.out.println("Running: " + sql);
    res = stmt.executeQuery(sql);
    while (res.next()) {
        System.out.println(res.getString(1));
    }
}

}

I imported all the necessary jars, and when I try to run my code, I get the following error:

 org.apache.thrift.TApplicationException: Required field 'client_protocol' is unset!   Struct:TOpenSessionReq(client_protocol:null)

How can I fix this?

回答1:

This indicates a version mismatch between client and server, namely that the client is newer than the server, which is your case.

Got same issue. It works if you set

hive JDBC Maven Repo version as 1.1.0 .

Check this jira. Newest hive-jdbc version is not supported with HIve 0.13. https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6050

Add this in your pom.

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.apache.hive</groupId>
  <artifactId>hive-jdbc</artifactId>
  <version>1.1.0</version>
  <classifier>standalone</classifier>
</dependency>

Guys even I faced the same issue and go the solution by doing the following steps

Step 01:- Include the Hive lib jars on yours eclipse(which ever might be the IDE) by using the below link.

http://mirrors.supportex.net/apache/hive/hive-1.0.1/ (apache-hive-1.0.1-bin.tar.gz)

Step 02: add hadoop-core-1.1.0 jar

as everyone mentioned this error occurs due to the version mismatch with hadoop standalone and hadoop core.
