----------------------------------------
why are we ignoring the exception in FileSinkOperator?
> Failures in Transform don't stop the job

> Key: HIVE-251

> Project: Hadoop Hive
> Issue Type: Bug

> Affects Versions: 0.2.0
> Reporter: S. Alex Smith

> If the program executed via a SELECT TRANSFORM() USING 'foo' exits with a
> non-zero exit status, Hive proceeds as if nothing bad happened. The main way
> that the user knows something bad has happened is if the user checks the logs
> (probably because he got no output). This is doubly bad if the program only
> fails part of the time (say, on certain inputs) since the job will still
> produce output and thus the problem will likely go undetected.
