Hello, I Am using Apache Hive 2.1.0 version. I am trying to create a simple table with 2 columns and trying to set the first column as primary key. But it is throwing error. 0: jdbc:hive2://10.230.245.94:10000/s3_data> ALTER TABLE VENDOR ADD CONSTRAINT VENDOR_PK PRIMARY KEY (VENDOR_ID); Error: Error while compiling statement: FAILED: ParseException line 1:19 cannot recognize input near 'ADD' 'CONSTRAINT' 'VENDOR_PK' in alter table statement (state=42000,code=40000) I read that primary key concept has been added from 2.1 version , but then when I try to create in beeline it's not recognizing the keyword "PRIMARY KEY". Please help! -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
