HI,

I use Hortonworks and I created a single-node cluster, I installed elasticsearch and kibana (6.2.3).  
I downloaded the jar file elasticsearch-hadoop-6.2.3.jar and added it in hive-site.xml file with the property name hive.aux.jars.path.

I have database named hosix.

I created an external table like this :  
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE test (...)  
STORED BY 'org.elasticsearch.hadoop.hive.EsStorageHandler'  
TBLPROPERTIES('es.resource' = 'hosix/test');

But when I want to select or loaded this table (select or insert queries) It shows me the following error :

We've seen some issues in the past with specifying jars using the hive aux jars path. Have you tried using the `ADD JAR` directive in the hive script to see if that works?
