The Hive Streaming API has changed in Hive 3.x and that might have something to do with it I’m not sure as I’ve never used Flume. Are you using a vendor distribution of Hive 3.x or are you rolling your own?
What does “show create table your_table;” show? It is possible to turn off acid if your setting Hive up manually.

I just create a hive table without tblproperties('transactional'='true') and ingest data from flume hive sink (https://flume.apache.org/releases/content/1.9.0/FlumeUserGuide.html#hive-sink), flume throws an exception like `Caused by: org.apache.hive.hcatalog.streaming.InvalidTable: Invalid table db:test, table:dllm: is not an Acid table`. How can I create a hive ACID table? I'd like to ingest stream data from flume to hive. Thank you for help!

Unless you need the buckets you should be able to just say create table and drop everything after partitioned by.
