Connection error: module 'winkerberos' has no attribute 'authGSSClientUsername' on Windows

I want to run dbt-hive on my Windows laptop in Git Bash against a local Hive running in Docker.

After installing it and configuring the profile, when running dbt debug I get this error: module 'winkerberos' has no attribute 'authGSSClientUsername'.

$ dbt debug

1 check failed:
dbt was unable to connect to the specified database.
The database returned the following error:

  >Runtime Error
  module 'winkerberos' has no attribute 'authGSSClientUsername'

Check your database credentials and try again. For more information, visit:

Hive in Docker on Windows works perfectly fine, I used it in an other Python based project with package impyla.

This same dbt install and dbt profile works fine on WSL2.

So there seems to be an issue specific to Windows + no Kerberos.

Any hint on how to debug it?

Hello! Did you solve the problem actually?

Hello, no sorry, I have not worked more on this subject since then.

No updates, and I will most likely not work on this in the future.
