There is an existing Jira to be able to specify the necessary JARs in the CREATE TABLE command, but this is not in yet - HIVE-9252<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9252>

The jar for Hive must be on a local filesystem of the Hive server (not necessarily on all nodes). On 12.

This is completely possible using "ADD JAR" command but I prefer to use hive.aux.jars.path setting in "hive-site.xml" or "HIVE_AUX_JARS_PATH" environment variable (Because then I don't need to update all of my scripts with ADD JAR command). Unfortunately, none of these methods seem to work. I tried different addressing methods (hdfs://, hdfs:///, hdfs://cluster_name/path/file.jar, hdfs://localhost:90000/path/file.jar, ...) but they don't work. So how can I do this? Thanks, Mahdi
