John P. Petrakis commented on HIVE-2750:
----------------------------------------
Unless we turn off group-by optimization, the query as described in Jira 12412,
which worked fine in Hive 1.0 fails in Hive 1.1 and later.
> Hive multi group by single reducer optimization causes invalid column
> reference error

> After the optimization, if two query blocks have the same distinct clause and
> the same group by keys, but the first query block does not reference all the
> rows the second query block does, an invalid column reference error is raised
> for the columns unreferenced in the first query block.
> E.g.
> FROM src
> INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE dest_g2 SELECT substr(src.key,1,1), count(DISTINCT
> src.key) WHERE substr(src.key,1,1) >= 5 GROUP BY substr(src.key,1,1)
> INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE dest_g3 SELECT substr(src.key,1,1), count(DISTINCT
> src.key), count(src.value) WHERE substr(src.key,1,1) < 5 GROUP BY
> substr(src.key,1,1);
> This results in an invalid column reference error on src.value
