Java - GSS initiate failed Exception, Caused by: org.apache.thrift.transport.TTransportException: GS

I am trying to retrieve records from the Hive tables. For that I have written the following connection in Java.

public static Connection getHiveConnection() throws IOException, SQLException {
    System.out.println("Preparing Hive connection1");
    Configuration conf = new Configuration();
    conf.set("hadoop.security.authentication", "Kerberos");

    System.setProperty("java.security.krb5.kdc", "ip-x-x-x-x.bc9.internal");
    System.setProperty("java.security.krb5.realm", "ABCDEV.COM");
    UserGroupInformation.loginUserFromKeytab("username@ABCDEV.COM", "/home/username/username.keytab");
    // UserGroupInformation.setConfiguration(conf);
    System.out.println("Kerberos Connected");
    // Hive Connection
    try {
        Class.forName("org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver");
        if((hiveConnection == null) || hiveConnection.isClosed()) {
            hiveConnection = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:hive2://x.x.x.x.x:10500/schema;principal=hive/_HOST@ABCDEV.COM", "user", "pwd");
            return hiveConnection;
        } else {
        return hiveConnection;
        }
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return null;
    } catch (SQLException e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        return null;
    }
}

When I try to use the connection from this class, in other class like below:

Connection hiveCon = (Connection) DbManager.getHiveConnection();
PreparedStatement hive_pstmnt =  hiveCon.prepareStatement(hiveCountQuery);
ResultSet hiveRs = hive_pstmnt.executeQuery();

I am getting the exception:

Preparing Hive connection1
SLF4J: Failed to load class "org.slf4j.impl.StaticLoggerBinder".
SLF4J: Defaulting to no-operation (NOP) logger implementation
SLF4J: See http://www.slf4j.org/codes.html#StaticLoggerBinder for further details.
Kerberos Connected

Caused by: org.apache.thrift.transport.TTransportException: GSS initiate failed

In the code, I have commented the line: UserGroupInformation.setConfiguration(conf); and if I remove the comments and execute the code, I get a different exception:

        at com.dbconnections.gphive.DbManager.getHiveConnection(DbManager.java:24)

I have done kinit and generated the ticket just to make sure the ticket has valid time period. Could anyone let me know what is the mistake I am doing here so that can correct the code.

The error complains about the value of "hadoop.security.authentication". You have set it to "Kerberos" while the accepted values are "simple" and "kerberos" (all letters in lowercase).
