AWS Glue Job scenarios with 'how to retrieve the table' scenarios for External Hive Metastore
I'm working on a personal project and I'm currently trying to run an AWS Glue job that processes data stored in an Amazon S3 bucket, but I'm working with an scenario where the job fails with the behavior message: `want to retrieve the table <table_name> from the Hive metastore`. I've double-checked the configurations of my Glue job and the connection to the external Hive metastore on Amazon RDS. The version of my Glue job is 2.0, and I'm using Python 3.6. I have the following code for my Glue job: ```python import sys from awsglue.transforms import * from awsglue.utils import getResolvedOptions from pyspark.context import SparkContext from awsglue.context import GlueContext from awsglue.job import Job args = getResolvedOptions(sys.argv, ['JOB_NAME']) sc = SparkContext() glueContext = GlueContext(sc) job = Job(glueContext) job.init(args['JOB_NAME'], args) # Attempting to read from external Hive metastore dynamic_frame = glueContext.create_dynamic_frame.from_catalog( database="my_database", table_name="my_table", transformation_ctx="dynamic_frame" ) # Further processing... job.commit() ``` I've verified that the IAM role associated with my Glue job has the necessary permissions to access the RDS instance and the Hive metastore. Additionally, I've checked that the Glue Data Catalog is correctly configured and points to the right RDS database. The connection alias in the Glue console is also set up correctly. One thing I noticed is that the Glue job is running in a different VPC than the RDS instance. I'm using a VPC endpoint for Glue, but I'm not sure if there are any additional networking configurations that could be causing this scenario. My Glue job runs in the `us-east-1` region, and so does my RDS instance. I've also tried running a sample query directly in the RDS instance to confirm that the table exists and is accessible, which it is. Still, the Glue job fails to recognize it. Has anyone encountered this specific scenario or have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this? Thanks! This is part of a larger application I'm building. What am I doing wrong? I've been using Python for about a year now.
