I am new to zeppelin notebook. But i noticed one thing that unlike spark-shell hiveContext is not automatically created in zeppelin when i start the notebook.
And when i tried to manually load the hiveContext in zeppelin like:
import org.apache.spark.sql.hive._
import org.apache.spark.sql.hive.HiveContext
val hiveContext = new HiveContext(sc)
I get this error

I think the error means that the previous metastore_db is not allowing to override the new one.
I am using spark 1.6.1
Any help would be appreciated.
