Unable to connect splunk to hive using db connect 3.4.0

I have installed Cloudera_HiveJDBC4_2.5.6.1008 driver for Hive from the Cloudera website

1. I have placed the following files in C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\splunk_app_db_connect\drivers

2. I created db_connection_types.conf in C:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\splunk_app_db_connect\local with the following data

[hive2]
displayName = Hive Server 2
dbcDriverClass = com.cloudera.hive.jdbc4.HS1Driver
defaultPort = 10001
connectionUrlFormat = jdbc:hive2://{0}:{1}/{2}
defaultSchema = default
defaultCatalogName = default

 

Even after doing these steps - It says hive driver is not installed! Can someone please help me!

 
 
 

The JRE installation path - C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_261

can you verify status of hive driver in Spunk DB Connect ? It should say installed.

I am not very sure why it says not installed when I have placed the driver in the folder?

I have checked one article https://examples.javacodegeeks.com/hive-jdbc-connection-java-example/.

I tried using the jar used in the above article to see if Splunk detects it or not, but Splunk is not detecting that too.

And also, I have observed path is not correct in windows. action=load_drivers Can not load any driver from files [/C:/Program%20Files/Splunk/etc/apps/splunk_app_db_connect/drivers/HiveJDBC41.jar]

path was supposed to be in windows style like \ rather / ( linux style)

Ensure that Splunk has necessary permissions on  splunk_app_db_connect\windows_x86_64\bin and splunk_app_db_connect\drivers
