ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver

Viewed 30745

I'm pretty new to Java. I'm trying to connect to hive server through java and used sample code from https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/HiveServer2+Clients#HiveServer2Clients-JDBC

import java.sql.SQLException;

public class HiveJdbcClient {
    //private static String driverName = "org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver";
    public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException {
        try {
            Class.forName("org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver");
        } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
            System.exit(1);
        }
    }
}

I placed all the jars in the required location and updated the pom file, but getting

java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveDriver

I searched for a solution for quite some time, but couldn't solve it. Please let me know how to fix this.
