We use the DBeaver to connect to our hive datalake. I've found a very strange behavior. We have a test and a production datalake.
In our test datalake it correctly displays the tables metadata in the Project tab (the left column). Here it is:
But when I go to the our hive production connection, and click in the small arrow beside the schema, no metadata is displayed:
The weirdest thing is that if I execute the command show tables
or describe table_name
, the metadata is correctly displayed. So I have all the permissions to display it.
I've compared all configurations that I've found trying to debug this problem, but don't know what to do any more. A datalake admin helped me since I don't have all the permissions to it.
We use kerberos and a Jdbc connection to Hive.
How to make dbeaver display my metadata ? What should I check to try to fix this?
