Impala Cannot See Some Tables Created In Hive (Doc ID 2281153.1)

Last updated on AUGUST 03, 2021

Applies to:

Big Data Appliance Integrated Software - Version 4.5.0 and later
Linux x86-64

Symptoms

Impala cannot see some tables created in Hive and the table counts in Hive and Impala (both in HUE and on the command-line) are different.

Manually refreshing Impala metadata in Hue (all 3 options: clear cache/Incremental update/Invalidate all metadata and rebuild index) does not resolve the issue.  Running "invalidate metadata" from the command line gives errors as it also does in Hue.
