John Sichi commented on HIVE-2155: ---------------------------------- I added *'s on a bunch of places that should be using the new "Encountered near" phrasing. Also, the fugliness is still there for the GROUP BY stuff. Those internal nodes should never be printed at all. Did you look into trying to get it to print the column instead of the table? > Improve error messages emitted during semantic analysis > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-2155 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2155 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Syed S.
