Hi,
We are using Hadoop with elasticsearch on a cluster of 5 nodes and we are using : CDH 5.8.0, eastic search 2.3.5 and elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4.
We created a table on elastic search using hive and it worked and we are trying to load the data from hive :
INSERT overwrite TABLE cdr\_es SELECT ....
FROM cdr\_link
But we have the following error :

Caused by: java.lang.Error: Multiple ES-Hadoop versions detected in the classpath; please use only one
If we delete one of the jars (elasticsearch-hadoop-hive-2.3.4 or elasticsearch-hadoop-cascading-2.3.4.jar or elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4.jar) than we will have an error with a missing package.
How can we solve the problem ?
Thanks

You seem to be using all of the jars when you should be using only one. We provide the full package of features in one jar (elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4.jar), but we also provide dedicated jars for each technology should users desire to use them in a standalone fashion. Keep the elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4.jar and remove the others.

Hi James,
Thanks for the answer.
If we leave only the jar that we need (elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4.jar) then we will have another errors "File file:/usr/lib/elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4/dist/elasticsearch-hadoop-cascading-2.3.4.jar does not exist"
2016-08-30 08:20:54,773 ERROR org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.Task: [HiveServer2-Background-Pool: Thread-1040]: Job Submission failed with exception 'java.io.FileNotFoundException(File file:/usr/lib/elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4/dist/elasticsearch-hadoop-cascading-2.3.4.jar does not exist)'
java.io.FileNotFoundException: File file:/usr/lib/elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.4/dist/elasticsearch-hadoop-cascading-2.3.4.jar does not exist
If we have all the libraries then the map works perfectly but we have the "Multiple ES-Hadoop versions detected" error when starting to reduce.
How can we solve that ?
Thanks

We used elasticsearch-hadoop-2.3.3.jar and it worked without problems.
I guess that there is a problem with the 2.3.4
Thank you
