title: how to build apache hive from source
body: <p>i have been searching a lot in the web for instructions to compile and run Apache Hive (already installed hadoop 2.6.0) but no luck - 
  i tried to clone from: <a href="https://github.com/apache/hive/tree/branch-0.10" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/apache/hive/tree/branch-0.10</a>
  and use those compile commands: <a href="https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/GettingStarted" rel="nofollow">https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/GettingStarted</a> for hive 0.10. but it gives me errors and warning about missing all kinds of directories in the hive directory tree.
  i tried more stuff but all failed.
  right now i have uninstalled hadoop and want to start a fresh clean installation of hadoop+hive.</p>
  
  <p>If someone can just give me directions about how to compile, what versions of hadooop/hive to use and how to configure everything i would be more than thankful.</p>
  
  <p>btw: for hive it must be compiling from source. hadoop can be from a  binary package.</p>
  
  <p>i have Ubutuntu 14</p>
  
  <p>thanks.</p>
