I am trying to go through the tutorial with the Cloudera QuickStart VM.

 

However, it fails at the first command:

 

sqoop import-all-tables -m 1 --connect jdbc:mysql://quickstart:3306/retail_db --username=retail_dba --password=cloudera --compression-codec=snappy --as-parquetfile --warehouse-dir=/user/hive/warehouse --hive-import

 

16/01/23 18:27:19 INFO hive.metastore: Waiting 1 seconds before next connection attempt.
16/01/23 18:27:20 INFO hive.metastore: Trying to connect to metastore with URI thrift://quickstart.cloudera:9083
16/01/23 18:27:20 WARN hive.metastore: Failed to connect to the MetaStore Server...
16/01/23 18:27:20 INFO hive.metastore: Waiting 1 seconds before next connection attempt.
16/01/23 18:27:21 ERROR sqoop.Sqoop: Got exception running Sqoop: org.kitesdk.data.DatasetOperationException: Hive metastore exception

 

Do I need to configure something in Hive before running that command?
