I am trying to connect to a Spark cluster on Databricks and I am following this tutorial: https://docs.databricks.com/dev-tools/dbt.html. And I have the dbt-databricks connector installed (https://github.com/databricks/dbt-databricks). However, no matter how I configure it, I keep getting "Database error, failed to connect" when I run dbt test / dbt debug.
This is my profiles.yaml:
databricks_cluster:
outputs:
dev:
connect_retries: 5
connect_timeout: 60
host: <my_server_hostname>
http_path: <my_http_path>
schema: default
token: <my_token>
type: databricks
target: dev
This is my dbt_project.yml:
# Name your project! Project names should contain only lowercase characters
# and underscores. A good package name should reflect your organization's
# name or the intended use of these models
name: 'dbt_dem'
version: '1.0.0'
config-version: 2
# This setting configures which "profile" dbt uses for this project.
profile: 'databricks_cluster'
# These configurations specify where dbt should look for different types of files.
# The `model-paths` config, for example, states that models in this project can be
# found in the "models/" directory. You probably won't need to change these!
model-paths: ["models"]
analysis-paths: ["analyses"]
test-paths: ["tests"]
seed-paths: ["seeds"]
macro-paths: ["macros"]
snapshot-paths: ["snapshots"]
target-path: "target" # directory which will store compiled SQL files
clean-targets: # directories to be removed by `dbt clean`
- "target"
- "dbt_packages"
# Configuring models
# Full documentation: https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/configuring-models
# In this example config, we tell dbt to build all models in the example/ directory
# as tables. These settings can be overridden in the individual model files
# using the `{{ config(...) }}` macro.
models:
dbt_dem:
# Config indicated by + and applies to all files under models/example/

I have also tried using the spark connector, but I still get the same error using that. Any ideas as to why I can't connect to the Databricks cluster?
These are the logs corresponding to the error:

I had not specified this in the original question, but I had used conda to set up a virtual environment. Somehow that doesn't work, so I'd recommend following the tutorial to the letter and use pipenv.
