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 ?
