hadoop_1@shubho-HP-Notebook:~$

The above Exception was thrown. So I checked and there was no conf/hive-site.xml. So I created and edited it:

<property>
  <name>hive.exec.local.scratchdir</name>
    <value>$HIVE_HOME/iotmp</value>
    <description>Local scratch space for Hive jobs</description>
</property>
<property>
   <name>hive.querylog.location</name>
    <value>$HIVE_HOME/iotmp</value>
    <description>Location of Hive run time structured log file</description>
 </property>
 <property>
   <name>hive.downloaded.resources.dir</name>
    <value>$HIVE_HOME/iotmp</value>
    <description>Temporary local directory for added resources in the remote file system.</description>
 </property>

Still the same error is thrown.

回答1:

I was struggling with the same error. I found that the problem was caused because I installed java 9 and configured hadoop with java 9. While Hive does not support java version 9.

The solution is to replace java version 9 with java version 8.Install java version 8 and then configure both hadoop and hive on java 8.

Open file $HADOOP_HOME/etc/hadoop/hadoop-env.sh and paste the below line:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64

also set the same address while configuring hive.

I was face same problem , hive sell is not start when type command hive.first, I was Check all daemons are running or not using jps command , in my case namenode is not working.so first stop all running daemons use stop-all.sh then format namenode (namenode -format) and again start by start-all.sh then check it using jps.If the problem is still remain you can check your configuration files and confg again , it was work for me.
