It seems to be similar to this problem
http://www.datastax.com/support-forums/topic/there-was-a-problem-with-the-cassandra-hive-metastore
But the error is slightly different.
hive> CREATE TABLE invites (foo INT, bar STRING)
> PARTITIONED BY (ds STRING);
FAILED: Error in metadata: MetaException(message:Got exception: java.io.IOException UnavailableException())
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask
We are trying to run the lastest DSE up on amazon ec2. Any thoughts on our configuration error?
Thanks,
Todd
