Failed to query external table via PXF

I made a GPDB(greenplum-db-5.18.0) cluster with one master and 3 segment hosts. And following this link, I configured kerberos and hdfs core xmls, and PXF service startup successfully. While I run a query pointing to remote hdfs file, it keeps giving error log like :

SEVERE: The exception contained within MappableContainerException could not be mapped to a response, re-throwing to the HTTP container
java.lang.VerifyError: Bad return type
Exception Details:
  Location:
    org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/DFSClient.getQuotaUsage(Ljava/lang/String;)Lorg/apache/hadoop/fs/QuotaUsage; @160: areturn
  Reason:
    Type 'org/apache/hadoop/fs/ContentSummary' (current frame, stack[0]) is not assignable to 'org/apache/hadoop/fs/QuotaUsage' (from method signature)
  Current Frame:
    bci: @160
    flags: { }
    locals: { 'org/apache/hadoop/hdfs/DFSClient', 'java/lang/String', 'org/apache/hadoop/ipc/RemoteException', 'java/io/IOException' }

The PXF service is started with openjdk 1.8.0_131. And our hdfs cluster is based on hadoop mdh 2.6.0.4, so I put hadoop-*2.6.0-mdh2.6.0.4.jar into $PXF_CONF/lib, while GPDB 5.18 itself is based on hadoop 2.8.5. Is it a conflict for this error?

I found one issue alike in error but without definite solution:Exception in thread "main" java.lang.VerifyError: Bad type on operand stack

BTW, is there any other thing I missed for accessing hdfs file with PXF such as setting HADOOP VERSION via gpconfig, which is not mentioned in the guide doc.

Try cleaning out your $PXF_CONF/lib folder. In general, the libraries that we ship are sufficient to connect to most hadoop distributions. I would suggest you try the following:

$ rm -rf $PXF_CONF/lib/*
$ $PXF_HOME/bin/pxf restart

If you are on a multinode cluster, you will need to remove the jar files from $PXF_CONF/lib/ manually on each segment host, and then restart the PXF cluster.

PXF is compatible with Cloudera, Hortonworks Data Platform, MapR, and generic Apache Hadoop distributions. Microsoft's (Microsoft Distribution of Hadoop (MDH)) is not within the release notes.
