Gunther Hagleitner updated HIVE-7220: ------------------------------------- Attachment: HIVE-7220.3.patch Rebased. Only change was to move the new q file to the now separate file used to configure mini mr files. > Empty dir in external table causes issue (root_dir_external_table.q failure) > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-7220 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7220 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Szehon Ho > Assignee: Szehon Ho > Attachments: HIVE-7220.2.patch, HIVE-7220.3.patch, HIVE-7220.patch > > > While looking at root_dir_external_table.q failure, which is doing a query on > an external table located at root ('/'), I noticed that latest Hadoop2 > CombineFileInputFormat returns split representing empty directories (like > '/Users'), which leads to failure in Hive's CombineFileRecordReader as it > tries to open the directory for processing. > Tried with an external table in a normal HDFS directory, and it also returns > the same error. Looks like a real bug. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
