How to connect QlikView with Hadoop?

Hi,

Within QlikView I am trying to access data within Hadoop HDFS  (table or file).

First I installed a driver from http://hortonworks.com/hdp/addons/, I downloaded and used driver 'Hortonworks Hive ODBC Driver (Win/Mac – v1.3.19)' - windows 64-bit (msi).

After installing, within QlikView I choose database 'OLE DB' and then select 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers'. Then for  'data source name' I choose 'Sample Hortonworks Hive DSN'.

But when testing the connection I end with 'Test connection failed because of an error in initialize provider'...

Does someone have an idea how I can solve this?
