Hi,

> Add the below configuration in HDFS from CM UI: CM -> hdfs -> Configuration 

 

hadoop.proxyuser.hive.hosts = *

hadoop.proxyuser.hive.groups = * 

 

If the above is already set, please disable the DB notification API auth. 

In Hive and Hive_On_Tez Service:

In Hive Service Advanced Configuration hive-site safety value: 

 

Name: hive.metastore.event.db.notification.api.auth

Value: false

 

Restart stale configs and check if it works.

 

Regards,
