He Yongqiang commented on HIVE-2417: ------------------------------------ Good catch, this is a regression introduced in HIVE-2396. Can you make the testcase more easy to reproduce the problem? I mean if without the change in this diff, should get an error or incorrect results when running with that testcase. 1. remove this "+set mapred.output.compression.codec=org.apache.hadoop.io.compress.BZip2Codec;", 2. tgt_rc_merge_test only contains one file, so the 'alter table tgt_rc_merge_test concatenate;' will basically do nothing. Can you make sure this table at least contains 2 files? You can upload 2 gzip compressed rcfile if there is not. > Merging of compressed rcfiles fails to write the valuebuffer part correctly > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2417 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2417 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Query Processor > Reporter: Krishna Kumar > Assignee: Krishna Kumar > Attachments: HIVE-2417.v0.patch > > > The blockmerge task does not create proper rc files when merging compressed > rc files as the valuebuffer writing is incorrect. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
