Apache Spark creating hive context - NoSuchMethodException

Question

I have the following problem: my main method:

static public void main(String args[]){
     SparkConf conf = new SparkConf().setAppName("TestHive");
     SparkContext sc = new org.apache.spark.SparkContext(conf);
     HiveContext hiveContext = new org.apache.spark.sql.hive.HiveContext(sc);    
}

And I will build it using mvn package Then I submit my code, but get the following exception. I do not know what happened:

sh spark-submit --class "TestHive" --master local[4] ~/target/test-1.0-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar 

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: org.apache.hadoop.hive.conf.HiveConf.getTimeVar(org.apache.hadoop.hive.conf.HiveConf$ConfVars, java.util.concurrent.TimeUnit)

Please tell me where I am wrong.

PS I built my spark with a hive and a lean server.

Spark 1.5.2 built for Hadoop 2.4.0
Build flags: -Psparkr -Phadoop-2.4 -Phive -Phive-thriftserver -Pyarn

There seems to be a version conflict between the spark components (spark core, spark-sql and spark hive)

To avoid this, all versions of these components should be the same. You can do this on your own pom.xmlby installing peroperty named spark.version, for example:

<properties>
    <spark.version>1.6.0</spark.version>
</properties>
<dependencies>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.spark</groupId>
        <artifactId>spark-core_2.10</artifactId>
        <version>${spark.version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.spark</groupId>
        <artifactId>spark-hive_2.10</artifactId>
        <version>${spark.version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.spark</groupId>
        <artifactId>spark-sql_2.10</artifactId>
        <version>${spark.version}</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.spark</groupId>
        <artifactId>spark-streaming_2.10</artifactId>
        <version>${spark.version}</version>
    </dependency>
</dependencies>
