Many Thanks for your help Venkatesh. I have verified the partition exists and also the data displays successfully in the partition when i execute the select in the console.
But it does not appear in the web browser. I have verified multiple time the path i have given and is given below: Here is the first partition i have created and viewing successfully in both console & web browser: ALTER TABLE dividends ADD PARTITION(exchange = 'NASDAQ', symbol = 'AAPL') LOCATION '/home/satish/data/dividends/input/plain-text/NASDAQ/AAPL'; LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH '/home/satish/data/dividends/input/plain-text/NASDAQ/AAPL/dividends.csv' INTO TABLE dividends Partition(exchange='NASDAQ',symbol='AAPL'); Here is the one i can view only in the console but not in the browser: ALTER TABLE dividends ADD PARTITION(exchange = 'NASDAQ', symbol = 'INTC') LOCATION '/home/satish/data/dividends/input/plain-text/NASDAQ/INTC'; LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH '/home/satish/data/dividends/input/plain-text/NASDAQ/INTC/dividends.csv' INTO TABLE dividends Partition(exchange='NASDAQ',symbol='INTC'); When i run the command: select * from dividends where exchange='NASDAQ' and symbol='INTC'; I succesfully see the data. I am wondering if it is possible to bounce/restart the server with any command or is it possible to look into the hive metadata directly using a command. Any help is appreciated.

The reason you are not seeing the path you are expecting might be either 1) the path got deleted after the data load (do a simple select and verify you see some data) or 2) you have loaded the data from some other path to this partition - Venkatesh ________________________________ Date: Fri, 8 Mar 2013 00:54:17 +0800 From: saigr...@yahoo.in Subject: Re: Partition not displaying in the browser To: user@hive.apache.org I get this ouput for: hive> show partitions dividends; OK partition exchange=NASDAQ/symbol=AAPL exchange=NASDAQ/symbol=INTC Time taken: 0.133 seconds But when i navigate to my browser folder the partition INTC is not displayed even after refreshing it a bunch of times, any suggestions will be appreciated: ************************* Contents of directory /home/satish/data/dividends/input/plain-text/NASDAQ ________________________________ Goto : ________________________________ Go to parent directory Name Type Size Replication Block Size Modification Time Permission Owner Group AAPL dir 2013-03-07 08:46 rwxr-xr-x satish supergroup Go back to DFS home ________________________________ Local logs Any suggestions will be appreciated.
