HIve 2.1.0 is throwing InvalidObjectException(message:Invalid column type name is too long If you go through MetaStoreUtils.java you can see MAX_MS_TYPENAME_LENGTH is hard coded to 2000, but this can be set to higher value in mysql.Table create doesn't happen , for tables with higher type length. Different users can change this variable based on different use cases/metastore if this can be a config variable. public static final int MAX_MS_TYPENAME_LENGTH = 2000; public static final String TYPE_FROM_DESERIALIZER = "<derived from deserializer>"; /** * validate column type * * if it is predefined, yes. otherwise no * @param name * @return */ static public String validateColumnType(String type) { if (type.equals(TYPE_FROM_DESERIALIZER)) return null; if (type.length() > MAX_MS_TYPENAME_LENGTH) { return "type name is too long: " + type; } -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
