Hey Zheng, I copied the example over and registered it without any changes, but am getting the same sort of error message:
hive> select EXAMPLE_AVG(impressionrequesttime) from foo where day = '2009-08-31' and hour = 3; FAILED: Unknown exception : Internal error: Cannot get typeName for class com.videoegg.vdat.hive.udf.UDAFExampleAvg$UDAFAvgState Jason On 9/9/09 6:06 PM, "Zheng Shao" <[email protected]> wrote: Hi Jason, Can you copy contrib/src/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/contrib/udaf/example/UDAFExampleAvg.java and start from there? I didn't see any problems from your code snip, but starting from that example will give you an easy to debug what actually went wrong. Let me know if that works.

I looked through the code and found where the exception gets thrown, but I can't figure out what exactly it is trying to do. Any help would be much appreciated! Jason
