Limit on schema size for create table
-------------------------------------

                 Key: HCATALOG-71
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-71
             Project: HCatalog
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.1
            Reporter: Olga Natkovich


We have encountered an error while trying to create table with schema that is 
128 bytes or longer. Is this a known limitation on size of a field?

The following command fails.
hcat -e "create table test1(id STRING, props STRUCT<obj_field1 : STRING, 
obj_field2 : STRING, obj_field3 : STRING, obj_field4 : STRING, obj_field5 : 
STRING, obj_field6 : STRING, obj_f7 : STRING>) stored as RCFILE location 
'/mylocation/my table';"

Error:

FAILED: Error in metadata: org.apache.thrift.TApplicationException: Internal 
error processing create_table
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask

The same command with a single char reduced succeeds.
