I've just installed hadoop on windows using cygwin which works fine, and now I am installing Hive. I am running it as:

(both give the same problem) as I have found out there is a bug with the windows naming convension (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2388..)

When I run the above command, Hive seems to load fine, but when I enter 'show tables;' I get no response. This is the same for all queries. CREATE TABLE etc, there is no response

Its the same problem as this guy:http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox..

I resolved a similar issue and successfully ran HIVE after starting all Hadoop daemons

• namenode
• datanode
• jobtracker
• Task Tracker

Running queries from files using hive -f <filename>, instead of writing queries directly at the HIVE command prompt. Additionally, you may also use bin/hive -e 'SHOW TABLES'

I can only recommend running hadoop in a linux virtual machine or native linux. Although successfully running hadoop 0.20.0 on windows xp+cygwin and windows7+cygwin, I once tried setting up a newer version of hadoop on windows7, but failed miserably due to errors in hadoop. IIRC hadoop with the security patch won't even run on windows7 because of problems with file permissons, etc. So my advice: run hadoop on linux if you can, you'll avoid a serious amount of problems.
