Answer 1

you need to delete these jar files binding between Hadoop and Hive

• rm lib/hive-jdbc-2.0.0-standalone.jar
• rm lib/log4j-slf4j-impl-2.4.1.jar

Answer 2

you have to delete /usr/local/hive/lib/slf4j-log4j12-1.6.1.jar because hive will automatically use slf4j-log4j jar file present in hadoop.
