beeline spark thrift server issue

Question

I was trying to access spark sql through jdbc but facing some error. I am trying to run beeline

! /usr/lib/spark/bin/beeline -u 'jdbc:hive2://host:10016/default;transportMode=binary'  -e '' 2>&1| awk '{print}'|grep -i -e 'Connection refused' -e 'Invalid URL' -e 'Error: Could not open'

host value is correct in command.(deliberately written for making it generic)

Error: Could not open client transport with JDBC Uri: host:10016/default;transportMode=binary: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused (Connection refused) (state=08S01,code=0)

hive.server2.thrift.port=10016 and mode is binary. I verified the process is running on this port. I checked the spark thrift server logs:

link to logs : https://pastebin.com/G5Mwaw7E

It says

java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to instantiate org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.SessionHiveMetaStoreClient
(pasted the logs in above link).

I am using spark version 3.1.0 , hive 3.1.2 and hadoop 3.1.2. Following this guide https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-data-sources-hive-tables.html#interacting-with-different-versions-of-hive-metastore

I set "spark.sql.hive.metastore.version" to 3.1.2 and set jars to point to hivemetastore 3.1.2 jars but still getting the same error.

From logs I also got suspicious about a mismatch in the version of datanucleus core in hive and spark but both use the same version.
