kevinjqliu opened a new issue, #3186:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg-rust/issues/3186
### Apache Iceberg Rust version
main
### Describe the bug
Hive 4.0.1 removed the `get_table` thrift method from the metastore service
(it is absent from the 4.x `hive_metastore.thrift`; only `get_table_req`
remains). The HMS catalog still calls `get_table` in `load_table`,
`table_exists`, and `rename_table`, so every table operation fails against a
Hive 4 metastore:
```
Error: Unexpected => Operation failed for hitting thrift error
Source: thrift error: Application(ApplicationException { kind:
ApplicationExceptionKind(1), message: "Invalid method name: 'get_table'" })
```
The integration tests run against `apache/hive:3.1.3`, which still serves
`get_table`, so CI does not catch this. PyIceberg hit the same problem and
fixed it in apache/iceberg-python#3924.
### To Reproduce
1. Start `apache/hive:4.2.1` as a metastore (`SERVICE_NAME=metastore`).
2. Point `HmsCatalog` at it and call `load_table` on any table.
### Expected behavior
Table operations succeed against Hive 4 metastores. `get_table_req` exists
in every Hive release since 2.3, so switching to it keeps older metastores
working.
