Michael, Out of the box I am taking this problem as a metadata problem as we have also faced same kind of issue when connecting tableu with hive and problem has identified in metadata set up. If your metadata in default apache db i.e. Derby then jdbc connection doesn't work. As a work around we have stored hive metadata in mySQL and configured hive-site.xml accordingly and now we're able to establish jdbc connection.
