Hi ,
I have created a external table and when I provide the location of the data for
this table I get the following error:
FAILED: Error in metadata:
MetaException(message:java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't overwrite cause)
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask
Also I am able to load the same file using PIG Script using the PigStorage()
loader function.
I have the following permissions on the file: rw-rw-r--
and on the folder where this file resides (Giving the path of this folder in
location in the query ) : drwxrwxr-x
What can be the cause for this and how to correct this error ?
