Hello , I will try with Network Derby, however I expected Mysql to perform better than Derby. I will keep you posted on result.
However please note I used to get following kind of errors : 1) FAILED: Error in metadata: AlreadyExistsException(message:Table DL_611_VerificationOutput_DSF_111 already exists) 11/06/14 21:17:09

hope someone can point you to the right direction in fixing it. in the mean time, if you don't have to use mysql as metastore, try derby, http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/HiveDerbyServerMode i followed that page and set up derby server, works without any problems. :) good luck!

While executing JDBC SQL queries, we discovered that 1. create table fails with error as "table already exists", even if table was not existing. 2. However Table gets created 3. Any SQL(select,delete,drop) query through SQL from CLI or JDBC for same or "other table", results with SQL exceptions like a. Error code 9 b. "method not found" c. Table already exists After searching I found that following page mentioned that HiveServer is "single threaded" http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hive/HiveServer however when "today" I checked it , it is showing "Hive Server is Multithreaded". However the page kept recommendation of running one HiveServer for each client. This page gives reference to JIRA Hive-80 . ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-80 ). A) I want to know whether errors mentioned above are related to multi-threaded feature's problem of HiveServer? Or some other issue? B) Is there any issue if particular table gets created and dropped many times? >From yesterday the issue is not getting reproduced, probably because we have >serialized access to Hive-Server. But not sure if the issue is resolved. Regards, Vikram DISCLAIMER ========== This e-mail may contain privileged and confidential information which is the property of Persistent Systems Ltd.
