A group of us is trying to write some code on Hive as a project for a class. However, we are having trouble getting started as we have never worked on this before.
We are trying to follow the instructions on-- https://cwiki.apache.org/Hive/howtocontribute.html We are able to check out the source code and build the source using "ant clean package". However, when we try to run the unit tests "ant clean package test tar -logfile ant.log" the log file indicates that the build failed with this error-- BUILD FAILED /Users/RadhikaMalik/Documents/MIT/Spring2012/6.830/hive-trunk/build.xml:317: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/RadhikaMalik/Documents/MIT/Spring2012/6.830/hive-trunk/build.xml:335: The following error occurred while executing this line: /Users/RadhikaMalik/Documents/MIT/Spring2012/6.830/hive-trunk/build-common.xml:434: Tests failed! Complete test report file has beenattached as well. We have tried this on Mac OSX 10.8 as well as on Ubuntu and it failed both times so we're not sure what's going on.. Any help on getting us set up would be really appreciated. Thanks! Radhika
