Cloudera version is CDH5 (CDH 5.13.0).

It seems like [indexer] app was blacklisted ([desktop] section in /hue/desktop/dump_config), so Hue won't work properly.
Also, looks like you are on the old UI, it is recommended to switch back to
Hue 4.

Answer 2

This might be a bit late, but thought of posting the solution to help others.
I was able to get this page working by setting "share_jobs" to "true" in "/etc/hue/conf.empty/hue.ini"
So the following worked for me:
[jobbrowser]
# Share submitted jobs information with all users. If set to false,
# submitted jobs are visible only to the owner and administrators.
share_jobs=true
