Hi PD, Thanks for your reply. I ad same value for hadoop.proxyuser.hive.groups and still was facing issue.

Actually I upgraded my HDP stack from 2.2 to 2.3 so because and I did not syncdb for hue. On ce I did that it solved my issue.

If you are getting above error then try to update hue config with following command. /usr/lib/hue/build/env/bin/hue syncdb --noinput it will update your hue files.

[root@m1 hue]# build/env/bin/hue syncdb --noinput

Syncing...

Can you cross check webhdfs_url propertie in hue.conf

webhdfs_url=http://NameNodeHost:14000/webhdfs/v1/

# webhdfs_url=http://NN Host:50070/webhdfs/v1/

Can you check hadoop-httpfs status?

Our best practice is to have a dedicated ambai views server (standalone) separate from Ambari server node. You can add more Ambari Views servers by the way and Hue is in the same situation I'd it goes down impact felt by everyone. @Saurabh Kumar please refer to ambai views user guide http://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/Ambari-2.2.0.0/bk_ambari_views_guide/content/ch_using_ambar...
