Hive query executeQuery() hangs in java JDBC code

Question

I have created a UDTF and I'm running below java hive JDBC code inside it to execute a hive query and get results. I'm able to get the connection to the hive2 server successfully but the code hangs indefinitely without any exception at statement.executeQuery(). What could be the reason? The same code runs in a standalone eclipse class but hands when deployed in a hadoop cluster as udtf.

The problem might be in creating connection in initialize method. Try to create connection in configure method, you can check Hbase connector as an example.
