Hive集成Mysql作为元数据时，提示错误：Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes

在进行Hive集成Mysql作为元数据过程中。做全然部安装配置工作后。进入到hive模式，运行show databases。运行正常，接着运行show tables；时却报错。

关键错误信息例如以下：

com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes)

详细操作信息例如以下：

hive> show databases;
OK
default
Time taken: 8.638 seconds

hive> show tables;

FAILED: Error in metadata: MetaException(message:Got exception: org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.api.MetaException javax.jdo.JDODataStoreException: An exception was thrown while adding/validating class(es) : Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes

NestedThrowables:
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLSyntaxErrorException: Specified key was too long; max key length is 767 bytes)

FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask

处理方案：

改动我们创建的hive元数据库的编码字符集，如：

alter database hive_test character set latin1;
