You can always use : ADD JAR <Path-to-your-jar-file> to your HQL file or run this command on Hive shell.
OR I found this in a previous thread Add following property to your hive-site.xml <property> <name>hive.aux.jars.path</name> <value>file:///home/me/my.jar,file:///home/you/your.jar,file:///home/us/our.jar</value> </property> Hope this helps.

You might try adding “ --auxpath /path/to/jar/dir “ to the Hive command line.
