Can't start Hive

Question

I have installed Hive and run the command

schematool -dbType derby -initSchema    

for initializing the database. But showing the following error.

SLF4J: Class path contains multiple SLF4J bindings.

SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/home/ubundu/Downloads/Hadoop/share/hadoop/common/lib/slf4j-log4j12-1.7.25.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class]

SLF4J: Found binding in [jar:file:/home/ubundu/hive/lib/log4j-slf4j-impl-2.10.0.jar!/org/slf4j/impl/StaticLoggerBinder.class]

SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#multiple_bindings for an explanation.

SLF4J: Actual binding is of type [org.slf4j.impl.Log4jLoggerFactory]

The error is internal to the schemaTool command.

I'd recommend using a different version of Hive to start, and using a database other than the default Derby database such as MySQL/MariaDB or Postgres.
