Integrate Hue with Oozie

About this task

Complete the following steps to integrate Hue with Oozie:

Procedure

  1. Edit the hue.ini file to configure the location where the Oozie service is running. The path to the hue.ini file is: /opt/mapr/hue/hue-<version>/desktop/conf/hue.ini. 
    [liboozie]   
# The URL (host IP address) where the Oozie service is running. This is required in order for # users to submit jobs. 
oozie_url=http://<ip_address>:<oozie_port_number>/oozie

    The <oozie_port_number> depends on whether your cluster is secure.

  2. Enable user impersonation for Oozie through Hue:
    1. Add the following lines to the oozie-site.xml file (the path to the file is: /opt/mapr/oozie/oozie-4.2.0/conf/oozie-site.xml): 
      <property>
  <name>oozie.service.ProxyUserService.proxyuser.<default_user>.hosts</name> 
  <value>*</value> 
</property>   
<property> 
  <name>oozie.service.ProxyUserService.proxyuser.<default_user>.groups</name> 
  <value>*</value> 
</property>
      In most cases, mapr is the <default_user>. This should be the same default user that is specified in the hue.ini and the core-site.xml.
    2. Restart Oozie. To restart Oozie, first stop Oozie then start it: 
      maprcli node services -name oozie -action restart -nodes <ip_address>
      To verify that the Oozie server started, enter: 
      lsof -i:<oozie_port_number>
      The output from this command should look similar to this: 
      COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME java 16644 mapr 35u IPv6 69926776 0t0 TCP *:irisa (LISTEN)
      You can also check Oozie logs to verify that Oozie started. The log is found here: /opt/mapr/oozie/oozie-<version>/logs/oozie.log
  3. Perform any additional Hue configurations and then restart Hue so that the changes will take effect. See Starting the Hue Webserver.
