> Key: DRILL-5928
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5928
> Project: Apache Drill
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.11.0
> Reporter: Paul Rogers
> Priority: Minor
>
> Consider the following test framework query:
> {noformat}
> /root/drillAutomation/mapr/framework/resources/Functional/data-shapes/wide-columns/general/q2.q
> {noformat}
> Defined as follows:
> {noformat}
> select count(*) from `data-shapes/wide-columns/general/100000.tbl`
> {noformat}
> The data file ({{100000.tbl}}) contains a single row, single field of 100K
> width. The query suceeds and returns 1.
> However, if we did the following:
> {noformat}
> select * from `data-shapes/wide-columns/general/100000.tbl`
> {noformat}
> then the query would fail with an oversize field exception. (Before Drill
> 1.13 the error is "Tried to write something large in a field", while 1.13 and
> after the error is "Text column is too large."
> The question is, should the query succeed in the {{COUNT\(*)}} case if it
> would fail in the {{SELECT *}} case?
