Subject: Where should I put JDBC drivers for metastore service

Hi,

I put mysql-connector-java-5.1.20-bin.jar into $HIVE_HOME/lib, and 
configurations in hive-site.xml are 
<property>
  <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL</name>
  <value>jdbc:mysql://192.168.72.1:3306/hive</value>
  <description>JDBC connect string for a JDBC metastore</description>
</property>

<property>
  <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionDriverName</name>
  <value>com.mysql.jdbc.Driver</value>
  <description>Driver class name for a JDBC metastore</description>
</property>

<property>
  <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionUserName</name>
  <value>root</value>
  <description>username to use against metastore database</description>
</property>

<property>
  <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword</name>
  <value>xiaobo</value>
  <description>password to use against metastore database</description>
</property>


When I execute a test HQL in hive, got the following error message:

hive> CREATE TABLE records (year STRING, temperature INT, quality INT)
    > ROW FORMAT DELIMITED
    > FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t';
FAILED: Error in metadata: MetaException(message:Could not connect to meta 
store using any of the URIs provided)
