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.
