When I add this to /etc/profile:
export PYTHONP
I have solved the same problem with you,here is my operation environment( System:linux Versions:python 3.6 Package:Pyhive) please refer to my answer as follows:
from pyhive import hive
conn = hive.Connection(host='149.129.***.**', port=10000, username='*', database='*',password="*",auth='LDAP')
The key point is to add the reference password & auth and meanwhile set the auth equal to 'LDAP' . Then it works well, any questions please let me know
