I completed the installation of a 4 node HDP cluster. Almost everything is up and running except for Hive Server. when I try to start the hive server. I get an error

When you install HDP and you don't intend to use the derby database as in most cases with MySQL you download mysql-connector-java.jar thats one of the preparatory steps on the node where you will be running Hive etc

# yum install -y mysql-connector-java

The location is /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar and when running the Ambari setup the jdbc location must be appended

# ambari-server setup --jdbc-db=mysql --jdbc-driver=/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar 

Once you have done the above then Hive, Oozie,Ranger etc will function correctly

Please have a look at this HCC How to Sync MySQL Connector jar across HDP components and validate that you didn't miss a step.

when I try this command the setup doesn't complete

sudo ambari-server setup --jdbc-db=mysql --jdbc-driver=/home/ubuntu/mysql-connector-java.jar

Using python /usr/bin/python Setup ambari-server Copying /home/ubuntu/mysql-connector-java.jar to /var/lib/ambari-server/resources If you are updating existing jdbc driver jar for mysql with mysql-connector-java.jar. Please remove the old driver jar, from all hosts. Restarting services that need the driver, will automatically copy the new jar to the hosts. JDBC driver was successfully initialized. Ambari Server 'setup' completed successfully

It says setup is successful. but it doesn't do any setup. just comes out. when I do `ambari-server setup` then it runs the setup but after the configuration of the cluster many services don't start because they cannot find the mysql-connector-java.jar

That's exactly the desired output "Ambari Server 'setup' completed successfully". Now if you start your hive 2server you shouldn't get the previous error.

Please let me know after attempting the H2S startup.
