Hive hassles
Couple of set-up issues observed while installing and using hive.
Related software versions: Hadoop: 1.0.3, HBase: 0.92.1, Hive: 0.9.0
I installed Hive using steps mentioned @ http://cloudblog.8kmiles.com/2012/01/31/hive-installation/ to set-up various environment variables and to create the required directories.
NoClassDefFoundError/ classpath issue
However, when I tried starting hive using /bin/hive, I found myself deep into NoClassDef issues like the one mentioned below. There were many such NoClassDef error that I encountered while I kept copying corresponding hive jars (as is mentioned on few of the blogs I could locate around those issues) into the hadoop lib directory.
