Behavioral Changes in Apache Phoenix

Learn about the change in certain functionality of Apache Phoenix that has resulted in a change in behavior from the previously released version to this version of Cloudera Runtime.

Summary:

Starting Cloudera Runtime 7.1.7, you can switch between older and newer versions of sqlline depending on the behaviour you would like to use.

Previous behavior:

phoenix-sqlline was part of the phoenix-client jar file and there was no option to switch between different versions of sqlline.

New behavior:

sqlline jar is separated from the phoenix-client-embedded jar file. If you want to use a different version of the sqlline, do the following:

1. Download the sqlline https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/sqlline/sqlline/1.9.0/sqlline-1.9.0-jar-with-dependencies.jar to your Phoenix cluster.
2. Run the export OVERRIDE_SQLLINE_JAR_LOCATION = “/path/to/sqlline-jardirectory” environment variable to set the classpath in order to override the default 1.9.0 version of sqlline that is shipped by default.
