Better Error Messages for Execution Errors
------------------------------------------

                 Key: HIVE-1032
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1032
             Project: Hadoop Hive
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Query Processor
            Reporter: Paul Yang
            Assignee: Paul Yang


Three common errors that occur during execution are:

1. Map-side group-by causing an out of memory exception due to large 
aggregation hash tables

2. ScriptOperator failing due to the user's script throwing an exception or 
otherwise returning a non-zero error code

3. Incorrectly specifying the join order of small and large tables, causing the 
large table to be loaded into memory and producing an out of memory exception.

These errors are typically discovered by manually examining the error log files 
of the failed task. This task proposes to create a feature that would 
automatically read the error logs and output a probable cause and solution to 
the command line.
