I am new to Hive. I am using Hadoop 0.19.0 and am running the version of Hive packaged with it under contrib/hive. I am following the apache access log example in the Hive user guide Wiki:
http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hive/UserGuide I cut and pasted the create table statement from the Wiki but it is giving me an error: $ bin/hive hive> CREATE TABLE apachelog ( > ipaddress STRING, identd STRING, user STRING,finishtime STRING, > requestline string, returncode INT, size INT) > ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.dynamic_type.DynamicSerDe' > WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ( > 'serialization.format'='org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.thrift.TCTLSeparatedProtocol', > 'quote.delim'='("|\\[|\\])', > 'field.delim'=' ', > 'serialization.null.format'='-') > STORED AS TEXTFILE; FAILED: Parse Error: line 1:132 cannot recognize input 'ROW' java.lang.NullPointerException at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.Driver.getResults(Driver.java:221) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliDriver.processCmd(CliDriver.java:112) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliDriver.processLine(CliDriver.java:137) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliDriver.main(CliDriver.java:234) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:39) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:25) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:597) at org.apache.hadoop.util.RunJar.main(RunJar.java:165) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobShell.run(JobShell.java:54) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ToolRunner.run(ToolRunner.java:65) at org.apache.hadoop.util.ToolRunner.run(ToolRunner.java:79) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobShell.main(JobShell.java:68) $ What did I miss? Or is this example valid? Bill
