Is it possible to do a query like the following:
INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE table1 PARTITION(...)
FROM table2
SELECT TRANSFORM(table2.col1, table2.col2, ...) USING '/my/script' AS (col1,
col2, ...)
WHERE (...)

I can run the select transform segment of the query by itself fine and I get
the results I expect.

When I try and do the insert as well I'm getting errors with column type
mismatches even though my script is outputting 3 columns with the exact same
types in the exact order that they appear in table1. I tried doing this with
both a mapper and reducer similar to what was shown in the Apache Con slides
and it still didn't work. Am I doing something wrong query wise?

I'm using the 0.19 release.
