how to fix add command not found error on putty ssh

Question

I have created a hadoop cluster using hortonworks sanbox VM on windows. For that I am using putty SSH. I want to add a custom jsonserde jar to hive. I am using add jar command, but i am getting an error like

-bash: add: command not found.

This is for putty ssh

add jar /usr/hdp/2.5.0.0-1245/hive/lib/json-serde-1.3.7-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar;

I expect this jar to be added to specified path.

Answer 1

ADD JAR is a Hive command, not shell. Read more here: HiveResources

Execute it in the Hive script in the same session before using in the query.

Example:

hive> add jar /usr/lib/sqoop/lib/jtds-1.2.jar;

Hive prints:

Added [/usr/lib/sqoop/lib/jtds-1.2.jar] to class path
Added resources: [/usr/lib/sqoop/lib/jtds-1.2.jar]
