Alice Fan commented on HIVE-12812: ---------------------------------- Hi [~ctang.ma], Thank you very much for your response :) If you don't mind, I would like to assign the ticket to myself and complete the patch. I am thinking maybe I can add an if condition here, at MapReduceCompiler.init(), we only set mapred.input.dir.recursive=true when hive.optimize.union.remove=true. By this way, it will be focused on addressing the issue caused by the remove union optimizer and may help to avoid regression in test case. > Enable mapred.input.dir.recursive by default to support union with aggregate > function > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-12812 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12812 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Hive > Affects Versions: 1.2.1, 2.1.0 > Reporter: Chaoyu Tang > Priority: Major > Attachments: HIVE-12812.patch, HIVE-12812.patch, HIVE-12812.patch > > > When union remove optimization is enabled, union query with aggregate > function writes its subquery intermediate results to subdirs which needs > mapred.input.dir.recursive to be enabled in order to be fetched. This > property is not defined by default in Hive and often ignored by user, which > causes the query failure and is hard to be debugged. > So we need set mapred.input.dir.recursive to true whenever union remove > optimization is enabled. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
