-----------------------------------
Let merry to reproduce it.
> 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).
