drill not showing hive or hbase tables - hadoop

Question

I've created both a hbase and hive table to store some data logging information. I can query both hbase and hive from the command line no prob.
hbase: scan MVLogger; // comes back with 9k plus records
hive: select * from MVLogger; // comes back with 9k plus records
my hbase table definition is
'MVLogger', {NAME => 'dbLogData', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE', BLOOMFILTER => 'ROW', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0', VERSIONS true
=> '1', COMPRESSION => 'NONE', MIN_VERSIONS => '0', TTL => '2147483647', KEEP_DELETED_CELLS => 'false', BLOCKSIZE => '65
536', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}
My hive (external) table definition is:
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE `MVLogger`(
`rowid` int,
`ID` int,
`TableName` string,
`CreatedDate` string,
`RowData` string,
`ClientDB` string)
ROW FORMAT SERDE
'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseSerDe'
STORED BY
'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler'
WITH SERDEPROPERTIES (
'serialization.format'='1',
'hbase.columns.mapping'=':key,dbLogData:ID,dbLogData:TableName,dbLogData:CreatedDate,dbLogData:RowData,dbLogData:ClientDB')
TBLPROPERTIES (
'hbase.table.name'='MVLogger')
When I use sqlline and look at the drill schema this is what I see
0: jdbc:drill:zk=ip-*.compu> show schemas;
+-------------+
| SCHEMA_NAME |
+-------------+
| hive.default |
| dfs.default |
| dfs.root |
| dfs.tmp |
| cp.default |
| hbase |
| sys |
| INFORMATION_SCHEMA |
+-------------+
and when I do a use [schema] (any of them but sys) and then do a show tables I get nothing... For example
0: jdbc:drill:zk=ip-*.compu> use hbase;
+------------+------------+
| ok | summary |
+------------+------------+
| true | Default schema changed to 'hbase' |
+------------+------------+
1 row selected (0.071 seconds)
0: jdbc:drill:zk=ip-*.compu> show tables;
+--------------+------------+
| TABLE_SCHEMA | TABLE_NAME |
+--------------+------------+
+--------------+------------+
No rows selected (0.37 seconds)
In the Drill Web UI (ambari) under storage options for Drill I see an enabled hbase and hive. The configuration for the hive storage is the following.
{
"type": "hive",
"enabled": true,
"configProps": {
"hive.metastore.uris": "thrift://ip-*.compute.internal:9083",
"hive.metastore.warehouse.dir": "/apps/hive/warehouse/",
"fs.default.name": "hdfs://ip-*.compute.internal:8020/",
"hive.metastore.sasl.enabled": "false"
}
}
Any ideas of why I'm not able to query hive/hbase ?
Update: The table is showing up in the hive schema now but when I try to query it with a simple select * from ... it just hangs and I can't find anything in any of the log files. The hive table's actual data store is hbase BTW.
Found out Hbase .98 is not yet compatible with the drill/hbase plugin... http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/incubator-drill-user/201410.mbox/%3CCAKa9qDmN_fZ8V8W1JKW8HVX%3DNJNae7gR-UMcZC9QwKVNynQJkA%40mail.gmail.com%3E

it's maybe too late but for others who may see the post and having this issue .

the user that is running drill has no access permission on hbase . grant drill user access on hbase and you will see the tables .
try going to hbase shell with drill user and run "list" it will also be empty until you grant permission then u will see the tables .
