I'm trying to set up Flink SQL with the Apache Iceberg catalog and Hive Metastore, but having no luck. Below are the steps I've taken on a clean Flink 1.18.1 installation, and the resulting error that I get.
Run Hive MetaStore:
docker run --rm --detach --name hms-standalone \
--publish 9083:9083 \
ghcr.io/recap-build/hive-metastore-standalone:latest
Run MinIO using Docker:
docker run --rm --detach --name minio \
-p 9001:9001 -p 9000:9000 \
-e "MINIO_ROOT_USER=admin" \
-e "MINIO_ROOT_PASSWORD=password" \
minio/minio server /data --console-address ":9001"
Provision a bucket:
docker exec minio \
mc config host add minio http://localhost:9000 admin password
docker exec minio \
mc mb minio/warehouse
Add the required MinIO configuration to ./conf/flink-conf.yaml:
cat >> ./conf/flink-conf.yaml <<EOF
fs.s3a.access.key: admin
fs.s3a.secret.key: password
fs.s3a.endpoint: http://localhost:9000
fs.s3a.path.style.access: true
EOF
Flink's S3 plugin:
mkdir ./plugins/s3-fs-hadoop
cp ./opt/flink-s3-fs-hadoop-1.18.1.jar ./plugins/s3-fs-hadoop/
Flink's Hive connector:
mkdir -p ./lib/hive
curl -s https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/flink/flink-sql-connector-hive-3.1.3_2.12/1.18.1/flink-sql-connector-hive-3.1.3_2.12-1.18.1.jar -o ./lib/hive/flink-sql-connector-hive-3.1.3_2.12-1.18.1.jar
Dependencies for Iceberg:
mkdir ./lib/iceberg
curl https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/iceberg/iceberg-flink-runtime-1.17/1.4.3/iceberg-flink-runtime-1.17-1.4.3.jar -o ./lib/iceberg/iceberg-flink-runtime-1.17-1.4.3.jar
mkdir -p ./lib/aws
curl https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/apache/hadoop/hadoop-aws/3.3.6/hadoop-aws-3.3.6.jar -o ./lib/aws/hadoop-aws-3.3.6.jar
Set the Hadoop dependency:
export HADOOP_CLASSPATH=$(~/hadoop/hadoop-3.3.2/bin/hadoop classpath)
Launch SQL Client:
./bin/sql-client.sh
Flink SQL> CREATE CATALOG c_iceberg_hive WITH (
> 'type' = 'iceberg',
> 'client.assume-role.region' = 'us-east-1',

Confirm that the JAR holds the S3AFileSystem class:
❯ jar tvf lib/aws/hadoop-aws-3.3.6.jar|grep -i filesystem.class

I get the same error if I strip the CREATE CATALOG back to bare-bones too:
Flink SQL> CREATE CATALOG c_iceberg_hive2 WITH (
> 'type' = 'iceberg',
> 'warehouse' = 's3a://warehouse',
> 'catalog-type'='hive',
> 'uri'='thrift://localhost:9083');
[INFO] Execute statement succeed.

Edit 01
Other things that I've tried:
./lib instead of subfolderss3-fs-hadoop pluginiceberg-aws-bundle-1.4.3.jar and aws-java-sdk-bundle-1.12.648.jar (separately, and together)More diagnostics:
If I add the three SQL statements (CREATE CATALOG / USE CATALOG / CREATE DATABASE) to a file and launch SQL Client with verbose class logging:
JVM_ARGS=-verbose:class ./bin/sql-client.sh -f ../iceberg.sql > iceberg.log
I get this output, showing that the hadoop-aws JAR just isn't picked up, even though it's in the classpath.
If I add Flink's s3-fs-hadoop back in we can see it being picked up (log), but still get the same failure.
Edit 02
If I switch from s3a to s3 I get a different error ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Flink SQL> CREATE CATALOG c_iceberg_hive WITH (
> 'type' = 'iceberg',
> 'client.assume-role.region' = 'us-east-1',
> 'warehouse' = 's3://warehouse',
> 's3.endpoint' = 'http://localhost:9000',
> 's3.path-style-access' = 'true',
> 'catalog-type'='hive',
> 'uri'='thrift://localhost:9083');
[INFO] Execute statement succeed.
Flink SQL> USE CATALOG c_iceberg_hive;
[INFO] Execute statement succeed.
Flink SQL> CREATE DATABASE db_rmoff;
[ERROR] Could not execute SQL statement. Reason:
MetaException(message:Got exception: org.apache.hadoop.fs.UnsupportedFileSystemException No FileSystem for scheme "s3")
If I add in io-impl I get yet another different error, which again seems (to my limited understanding) to suggest that hadoop-aws JAR isn't being picked up
Flink SQL> CREATE CATALOG c_iceberg_hive2 WITH (
> 'type' = 'iceberg',
> 'io-impl' = 'org.apache.iceberg.aws.s3.S3FileIO',

> 'warehouse' = 's3://warehouse',
> 's3.endpoint' = 'http://localhost:9000',
> 's3.path-style-access' = 'true',
> 'catalog-type'='hive',
> 'uri'='thrift://localhost:9083');

The error you observe originates from Hive Metastore server, not from Flink:

This indicates that this error had been received from Hive Thrift API.
Docker image used here to run Hive does not include hadoop-aws - you need to add it yourself, or use another Hive image that contains required dependencies.
