Recover Missing Catalog

This page is optional. Use it only if the expected Glue database or table does not appear in Athena, or if the schema is incorrect.

Recovery A: Create the Glue Database

If the workshop database does not exist yet, create it in AWS Glue.

Create Glue database for Athena

Recovery B: Run the Glue Crawler

If the table metadata is missing, run the crawler that scans the processed S3 location.

Run the Glue crawler

Wait until the crawler completes successfully.

Crawler completed successfully

Recovery C: Review the Schema

If the table appears but the schema is inconsistent, open the Glue table definition and inspect the schema.

Open the Glue table schema

If you fix invalid or duplicated fields, save a new schema version.

Save the corrected table schema

Only apply this recovery flow when the normal Glue pipeline output is missing or incorrect.
