Vora 1.3 VM issues

Vora folks,

I've had issues working with the Vora VM and Zeppelin examples. I think this summarizes issues to date. I very much appreciate the VM, but have mixed impressions given the frustrations. I've downloaded and imported the OVA file twice, with same results.

1. Zeppelin - The Vora interpreter configuration seems incorrect. %vora will not work (as shown in tutorials), only %jdbc and can't seem to find correct Vora interpreter configuration, even after watching the HANA Academy videos on Zeppelin installation (on AWS)

2. Hierarchies - There seem to be issues with the hierarchy example, leading to a type mismatch in scala. Since the Vora interpreter wouldn't work from Zeppelin, I issue the following statement directly in Vora Tools > SQL Editor, but get a scala error.

CREATE VIEW CLOTHES_PC_HIERARCHY AS
SELECT NODE, ID, PREDECESSOR, TYPE FROM
HIERARCHY(
    USING CLOTHES_PC CLOTHES
    JOIN PRIOR p on (CLOTHES.PREDECESSOR = p.ID)
    START WHERE CLOTHES.PREDECESSOR = 0
    SET NODE
) AS CLOTHES_PC_HIERARCHY

The error is:

scala.MatchError: NodeType (of class org.apache.spark.sql.types.NodeType$) with error code 0, status ERROR_STATUS

As noted in prior question: http://answers.sap.com/questions/140726/vora-13-developer-edition-vm-style.html there were other issues.

3. VMWare - cannot add host OS file share (as also noted in )

4. Zeppelin Hierarchies notebook not provided, manually created from screenshots - as also noted in http://answers.sap.com/questions/140726/vora-13-developer-edition-vm-style.html)

Any guidance on resolving the above issues are most appreciated!

Doug

Thanks for taking the time to document the issues you have run into Doug. I will make sure the Vora team is aware of (and hopefully already addressing) them. In the meantime, if I come up with any workarounds I will post them here.

Yes. These issues have been resolved in the 1.4 Developer edition VM.
