Esteban,
Thanks for the quick reply! That resolved the issue. The "IS_COMPRESSED" error is also in the HIVE-2176.3.patch. Clint From: Esteban Gutierrez [mailto:este...@cloudera.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 22, 2011 3:14 PM To: user@hive.apache.org Subject: Re: Trouble creating indexes with psql metastore Clint, sorry, I think I was too cryptic :) The default schema creation script is setting the column type for "DEFERRED_REBUILD" as bit(1) instead of boolean in the "IDXS" table and the JDBC driver is failing silently for that type mismatch. Also, it seems that "IS_COMPRESSED" in one of the internal datanucleus tables has the same issue in 0.7.1. A temporary solution is to alter the bit(1) type on those columns and set them to boolean, that should work for you. Cheers, Esteban. -- Support Engineer, Cloudera.
