Yes, that is expected as per https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1841 Hence the improved message instead of 10000 lines of callstack ;)

Please use schematool (e.g. ./schematool -initSchema -dbType ...) to create the schema. If needed, don't forget to include the option to auto-create the underlying database in your JDBC connection string (e.g. ?createDatabaseIfNotExist=true for mysql) Is this expected? This used to work out of box with embedded metastore created automatcially.
