Unable to launch Hive metastore with MySql empty password

Question

My local MySql do not have password for login, so I set hive-site.xml config for:

<property>
    <name>javax.jdo.option.ConnectionPassword</name>
    <value/>
<description>password to use against metastore database</description>

But After launching metastore with hive --service metastore

It always show there's password

Caused by: java.sql.SQLException: Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: YES)
