Hive exception when initializing using derby

Question

i am trying to initialize hive following the instruction here (https://kontext.tech/column/hadoop/309/apache-hive-311-installation-on-windows-10-using-windows-subsystem-for-linux)

Every time I receive this exception. I understand there is an issue as there seems to have 2 SLF4J but so far it was just a warning now everything seems to go south ... any idea is welcome as usual

probably could be something related to Hadoop. Check this link stackoverflow.com/questions/52073551/… — Kenry Sanchez

It looks like you have defined multiple elements in your core-site.xml. Look at line number 28 of your /home/MyUser/hadoop/hadoop-3.3.0/etc/hadoop/core-site.xml. A well-formed XML document should have one and only one top-level (“root”) element. For instance, the below document is legal.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>

<configuration>
   <property>
      <name>hadoop.tmp.dir</name>
      <value>/usr/local/Cellar/hadoop/hdfs/tmp</value>
      <description>A base for other temporary directories</description>
   </property>
   <property>
      <name>fs.default.name</name>
      <value>hdfs://localhost:8020</value>
   </property>
</configuration>

On the other hand, the below document is illegal because the <configuration> element is defined twice:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="configuration.xsl"?>
