How to fix HIVE Metastore Error: metastore.RetryingHMSHandler: java.lang.NoSuchFieldError: REPLDIR-CodePudding

I am new to Hive. I am using Oracle DB as the metastore. Everything has been working fine prior to this time. Whenvever I run this command now hive --service metastore I get this error

I have checked for similar errors here, I have not seen one which addressed the issue. This is the configuration part of hive-site.xml

  <property>
    <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionUserName</name>
    <value>username</value>
    <description>Username to use against metastore database</description>
  </property>
  
<property>
    <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL</name>
    <value>jdbc:oracle:thin:@//<db:port/schema></value>
    <description>
      JDBC connect string for a JDBC metastore.
      To use SSL to encrypt/authenticate the connection, provide database-specific SSL flag in the connection URL.
      For example, jdbc:postgresql://myhost/db?ssl=true for postgres database.
    </description>
  </property>
  <property>
  <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionDriverName</name>
  <value>oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver</value>
</property>
  
  <property>
    <name>hive.metastore.warehouse.dir</name>
    <value>hdfs://localhost:9000/user/hive/warehouse</value>
    <description>location of default database for the warehouse</description>
  </property>

Who has experienced this before? How do I solve it?

I fixed this error by deleting a redundant hive-common version in lib folder in hive.
