LOAD_TEMP - Unable to get database metadata from this database connection

关于kettle 写入mysql 遇到一个问题：LOAD_TEMP - Unable to get database metadata from this database connection，报错大致如下：

大致的意思就是 不能获取到数据库中的源数据，在网上查找一番，建议是清理数据库的缓存如下：

工具  --->   数据库  --->  清楚缓存

但是操作下来没有用。

仔细检查了一下影射字段

 在对应的表中，此字段为 is_weak_point ，hive表中的字段拼写错了。是通过获取字段直接来的。看来这个还是得仔细的核对字段名称，避免因字段拼写导致问题。将表字段改成is_weak_point 就行了。

还有一种情况也有可能出现问题。我们一般在hive 中字段类型一般用String 类型，但是业务库中字段却不是，大部分情况下是没有问题，但是遇到 数据库 中使用bit 类型，可能会出问题，一般是文件输入定义字段的时候，将String转成boolean 类型：
