Hive should work with 0.18 However - it needs to be specifically compiled with 0.18 to work. Please do 'ant -Dhadoop.version=0.18.0 package' from the source tree root to get jar files that work with 18.

I checked out and run hive based on the instructions on your wiki. I created a simple table containing 7 columns and loaded data into it. Now, when I do "select a.* from mytable a;" everything works fine. But, when trying "select a.mycolumn from mytable a;" I get the following exception: java.lang.AbstractMethodError: org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.HiveInputFormat.validateInput(Lorg/apache/hadoop/mapred/JobConf;)V at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobClient.submitJob(JobClient.java:735) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.ExecDriver.execute(ExecDriver.java:299) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.Driver.run(Driver.java:215) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliDriver.processCmd(CliDriver.java:174) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliDriver.processLine(CliDriver.java:204) at org.apache.hadoop.hive.cli.CliDriver.main(CliDriver.java:302) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(Unknown Source) at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Unknown Source) at org.apache.hadoop.util.RunJar.main(RunJar.java:155) 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) Should hive work with hadoop 0.18, or do I need to upgrade? Or do I need to update/rebuild hive? Thanks, Martin
