解决方案：

因为hive metastore存储在mysql中，所以登录mysql，use hive所使用的DB，然后 查询下VERSION表

mysql> select * from VERSION;

+——–+—————-+——————+

| VER_ID | SCHEMA_VERSION | VERSION_COMMENT |

+——–+—————-+——————+

| 1 | 0.14.0 | Set by MetaStore |

| 2 | 0.14.0 | Set by MetaStore |

| 3 | 0.14.0 | Set by MetaStore |

| 4 | 0.14.0 | Set by MetaStore |

| 5 | 0.14.0 | Set by MetaStore |

| 6 | 0.14.0 | Set by MetaStore |

+——–+—————-+——————+

保留第一条记录，其他记录全部删除

delete from VERSION where VER_ID !=1

出现这类异常问题原因

hive 是不支持并发的，估计我同事 不小心启动多个hive，也可能是网络问题，反正很诡异
