Hive 0.14 only requires bucketing and transactional tables if you want to use transactions. A few questions:
1) Is the transaction manager turned on in your cluster? To find out you can ask your hive administrator or look in hive-site.xml on your machines and see if hive.txn.manager is set to DbTxnManager.
2) What error did you get when you tried an insert without buckets?
3) What was the SQL insert statement you used?
