Description

On Windows fix from HIVE-7065 doesn't work as the templeton.cmd script does not include the Hive configuration directory in the classpath. So when hive.execution.engine property is set to tez in HIVE_CONF_DIR/hive-site.xml, webhcat doesn't see it and defaults it to "mr". This prevents Hive jobs running from WebHCat to use the tez execution engine.
