Thejas M Nair created HIVE-14231: ------------------------------------ Summary: timestamp support is limited to 4 digit year Key: HIVE-14231 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-14231 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Types Reporter: Thejas M Nair
Hive doesn't handle timestamp type that have a year with more than 4 digits. This limitation seems to be primarily around string to timestamp conversion. {code} Following insert query would insert NULL record - create table ts_test (t timestamp); insert into ts_test values ('2015-01-01 1:1:1'); insert into ts_test values ('20151-01-01 1:1:1'); select CAST(t as String) from ts_test; +----------------------+--+ | t | +----------------------+--+ | 2015-01-01 01:01:01 | | NULL | +----------------------+--+ {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
