Xingwen Zhang created HIVE-7448: ----------------------------------- Summary: --incremental=true in Beeline is not compatible with Binary columns (at least for select * from ...) Key: HIVE-7448 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7448 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Clients Affects Versions: 0.12.0 Reporter: Xingwen Zhang Priority: Minor
We would like to report that "--incremental=true" in Beeline is not compatible with Binary columns (at least for queries like "select * from some_table_with_a_binary_column limit 10;"). The error trace we got was: Error: Invalid column type: -2 (state=,code=0) java.sql.SQLException: Invalid column type: -2 at org.apache.hive.jdbc.JdbcColumn.columnDisplaySize(JdbcColumn.java:94) at org.apache.hive.jdbc.HiveResultSetMetaData.getColumnDisplaySize(HiveResultSetMetaData.java:60) at org.apache.hive.beeline.IncrementalRows.<init>(IncrementalRows.java:55) at org.apache.hive.beeline.BeeLine.print(BeeLine.java:1570) at org.apache.hive.beeline.Commands.execute(Commands.java:745) at org.apache.hive.beeline.Commands.sql(Commands.java:657) at org.apache.hive.beeline.BeeLine.dispatch(BeeLine.java:794) at org.apache.hive.beeline.BeeLine.begin(BeeLine.java:661) at org.apache.hive.beeline.BeeLine.mainWithInputRedirection(BeeLine.java:366) at org.apache.hive.beeline.BeeLine.main(BeeLine.java:349) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:606) at org.apache.hadoop.util.RunJar.main(RunJar.java:208) The error was gone when we reverted back to " "--incremental=false". BTW: we are using Hive 0.12. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
