Joe Auty updated DRILL-5611:
----------------------------
    Description: 
A query like the following is failing for me when there are null values in the 
input:

SELECT CAST(columns[5] AS TIME) as `monday_open` FROM dfs.tmp.`sampledata.csv`

It appears that the to_time() and to_date() functions fail too. My use case is 
trying to create parquet files from CSV input. The error message I'm getting:

SYSTEM ERROR: IllegalArgumentException: Invalid format: ""

I have set:

ALTER SYSTEM SET `drill.exec.functions.cast_empty_string_to_null` = true

Is this a bug/hole, or is there some other way I can negotiate these null 
values?

My apologies if there are any problems with how this report was filed.
