Hive remote postgres metastore - hadoop

Question

I was doing multi-node setup using Apache distribution .I was able to complete hadoop installation successfully (Hadoop 2.7.3).
When I tried hive (Hive 2.3),its working without issues with the default metastore(derby).Then I changed the hive-site.xml to point to my external postgresDB
I gave host,username,password as per the tutorial .But when I ran the schemainit it is faliling as bellow ,still showing derby details and initialization
is failing .Anybody faced the same issue ever?
bash-4.2$ /data/hive/bin/schematool -initSchema -dbType postgres --verbose
