Hi, what we did what Shrijeet said, we changed our hdfs port to 8020 because
we didn't know where to change it.
It is a filthy workaround but as we are still testing Hive, we just let that
one pass.
Maybe someone knows a "dirty way" to change Hive's port, I would also be
happy to try it.
And Shrijeet what did you exactly chane in the meta store?
Thanks!
