Xuefu Zhang commented on HIVE-4554: ----------------------------------- Thank you, Ashutosh. I have updated the batch using URIUtil.decode() to decode the special characters in the path instead of using getPath(), which does the decoding but causes the problems as you mentioned. > Failed to create a table from existing file if file path has spaces > ------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-4554 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4554 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: CLI > Affects Versions: 0.10.0 > Reporter: Xuefu Zhang > Assignee: Xuefu Zhang > Attachments: HIVE-4554.patch, HIVE-4554.patch.1, HIVE-4554.patch.2 > > > To reproduce the problem, > 1. Create a table, say, person_age (name STRING, age INT). > 2. Create a file whose name has a space in it, say, "data set.txt". > 3. Try to load the date in the file to the table. > The following error can be seen in the console: > hive> LOAD DATA INPATH '/home/xzhang/temp/data set.txt' INTO TABLE person_age; > Loading data to table default.person_age > Failed with exception Wrong file format. Please check the file's format. > FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.MoveTask > Note: the error message is confusing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
