Dear Team, I am using hive-0.13 of mapr distribution 1504.
I created a table called "testselectquery" using the query Create table testselectquery (col1 string, col2 string, col3 string, col4 string) row format delimited fields terminated by '|' stored as textfile; Then I load data into the above table through a file. Then I fetched the data from using select query in two ways: hive> select * from testselectquery; OK 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 hive> select col1, col2 col3,col4 from testselectquery; OK 1 2 4 5 6 8 9 10 12 --------------------------------- The issue is that in second select query even I have not put ',' beside col2, then also the query is running successfully and giving values for three columns. I believe it should fail in this situation. -- Regards, Barsha Giri
