Hi Harsh J, Thanks for your replying. It looks good to me to place the client-sided hbase-site.xml in the same directory as hive-site.xml. I already tried this approach before but didn't work. I will investigate this way wondering if there're some gaps here or possibly It was just caused due to my environment (like Hive or Hbase version).
