Answer 1

This is because of the lack of permission to the user aseema in hdfs. Follow the steps below.

Login as hduser and perform the following operations (from the logs, it seems hduser is a superuser)

hadoop fs -mkdir -p /user/hive/warehouse
hadoop fs -mkdir /tmp
hadoop fs -chmod -R 777 /user/hive
hadoop fs -chmod 777 /tmp

After this, try executing the create database statement from aseema user.
