Hi

I'm experiencing the following problem when running a simple query under
hive-0.10. I'm using the stock release package with CDH-4.1

The query need to execute map-reduce job for this to happen. For me
something along this one is sufficient:

select count(*) from sample_table;

The error I get looks like this and is taken from TaskTracker logs.

Is this a known issue? Should I report a Jira?
