> Key: HIVE-3960
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3960
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CLI
> Affects Versions: 0.8.0
> Environment: EC2 Amazon AMI 64-bit
> Reporter: Alex Breshears
> Priority: Minor
>
> There seems to be an issue with column names of "data".
> I was able to create a table with a column name of "data" via Sqoop but
> discovered this problem when trying to query the table in the CLI. Any
> refrence to a column name of "data" throws an error - even when fully
> qualifying it in a SELECT.
> See below.
> hive> create table test (id int, data string);
> FAILED: Parse Error: line 1:27 mismatched input 'data' expecting Identifier
> near ',' in column specification
> hive> create table test (id int, st string);
> OK
> Time taken: 5.778 seconds
