This error message is worthless. Copy the hive-0.11.1 source code to a separate directory, unarvhive, cd into the hive-0.11/src directory and run ant -verbose.

You should see something like this when the build fails:

OK a little more useful. Let's change the ivy configuration to public.


Fix:
go to the ivy2 repository under ~/.ivy2 under your home directory. Do an ls -al to show the hidden . directories.  This is similar to the .m2 maven repository. For the hive-metastore there is a configuration called compile which is set to private. Change it to public.

The screen shot below shows the ivy-0.11.0.xml file at /home/dc/.ivy2/cache/org.apache.hive/hive-metastore. Use a text editor to change the 4th line from the top from private to public. The screenshot shows the file after the change has been applied. Orginally the line ends with private.

The screen shot below shows the setting private changed to public. Change the conf name compile from private to public.
