Apache Drill query HBase table

com.google.common.base.Stopwatch class is present in guava jar.

The constructors are changed to package private at version 17 or 18.

Default constructor of Stopwatch class became private since Guava v.17 and marked deprecated even earlier.

seems like you are using latest version of guava, you could lower the version and try again which has suitable constructor.

If you are using maven/gradle you have to adjust dependencies that to fit aforementioned way.

Please have a look at this issue HBASE-14126 which was clearly explained

hadoop hbase apache-drill

This worked for me:

Replace Guava 18 jar with Guava 16 jar in apache-drill-1.9.0/jars/3rdparty folder. You can find Guava 16 jar here:
