spark ETL and spark thrift server

Some details:

ThriftCLIService: Starting ThriftBinaryCLIService on port 10000 with 5...500 worker threads

BI tool is connect via odbc driver

After activating Spark Thrift Server I'm unable to run pyspark script using spark-submit as they both use the same metastore_db

error:
Caused by: ERROR XJ040: Failed to start database 'metastore_db' with class loader org.apache.spark.sql.hive.client.IsolatedClientLoader$$anon$1@3acaa384, see the next exception for details.
        at org.apache.derby.iapi.error.StandardException.newException(Unknown Source)

        ... 140 more
Caused by: ERROR XSDB6: Another instance of Derby may have already booted the database /tmp/metastore_db.

I need to be able to run PySpark (Spark ETL) while having spark thrift server up for BI tool queries. Any workaround for it?

Thanks!

Solution

  • In my case the solution was to move the metastore_db to a database server like MySql (in my case) or Postgresql.

    You will have to configure $SPARK_HOME/conf/hive-site.xml and include your jdbc driver in $SPARK_HOME/jars path

    hive-site.xml example for MySQL connection

    <configuration>
