Istvan Szegedi commented on HIVE-3819:
--------------------------------------

I am running hive 0.9.0 and when Hadoop is stopped, I get the following error 
message indicating the hive cannot connect to hdfs://localhost:9000 (hadoop 
fs.default.name):

hive> create table test ( i int );
create table test ( i int )
FAILED: Error in metadata: MetaException(message:Got exception: 
java.net.ConnectException Call to localhost/127.0.0.1:9000 failed on connection 
exception: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused)
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask

                
> Creating a table on Hive without Hadoop daemons running returns a misleading 
> error

> I was running hive without running the underlying hadoop daemon's running. 
> Hadoop was configured to run in pseudo-distributed mode. However, when I 
> tried to create a hive table, I got this rather misleading error:
> {code}
> FAILED: Error in metadata: java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate 
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.HiveMetaStoreClient
> FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from 
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask
> {code}
> We should look into making this error message less misleading (more about 
> hadoop daemons not running instead of metastore client not being 
> instantiable).
