Description

hive 0.11 used to have hwi-0.11.war file but it seems that hive 13 is not configured to build a war file, instead it builds a jar file for hwi.

A fix for this would be to change jar to war in hwi/pom.xml.

Please let me know if jar was intended or is it actually a bug so that I can submit a patch for the fix.
