    In same scenario on AWS cloud. First check on ambari server host that directory (/var/lib/ambari-server/resources/) contains the mysql-connector-java.jar file. If not download it and follow below steps.

    1. Download mysql connector jar from here

    2. Untar the file and rename mysql connector jar to mysql-connector-java.jar

    3. Copy the file under directory (/var/lib/ambari-server/resources/)

    4. Restart Hive services.

    Above troubleshoot helped me where I was installing test HDP cluster on AWS.
