Remus Rusanu commented on HIVE-16667:
-------------------------------------

Can you confirm with a debugger that that line is being executed? I want to 
figure out whether is a different Hive setting that causes this code not to run 
in your case, or the line is being executed but behave differently (loads the 
lobs as strings), which would point toward a difference in Env/PG/JDO/Driver.

> PostgreSQL metastore handling of CLOB types for COLUMNS_V2.TYPE_NAME and 
> other field is incorrect

> The CLOB JDO type introduced with HIVE-12274 does not work correctly with 
> PostgreSQL. The value is written out-of-band and the LOB handle is written,as 
> an INT, into the table. SELECTs return the INT value, which should had been 
> read via the {{lo_get}} PG built-in, and then cast into string.
> Furthermore, the behavior is different between fields upgraded from earlier 
> metastore versions (they retain their string storage) vs. values inserted 
> after the upgrade (inserted as LOB roots).
> Teh code in 
> {{MetasoreDirectSql.getPartitionsFromPartitionIds/extractSqlClob}} expects 
> the underlying JDO/Datanucleus to map the column to a {{Clob}} but that does 
> not happen, the value is a Java String containing the int which is the LOB 
> root saved by PG.
> This manifests at runtime with errors like:
> {code}
> hive> select * from srcpart;
> Failed with exception java.io.IOException:java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: 
> Error: type expected at the position 0 of '24030:24031' but '24030' is found.
> {code}
> the 24030:24031 should be 'string:string'.
> repro:
> {code}
> CREATE TABLE srcpart (key STRING COMMENT 'default', value STRING COMMENT 
> 'default') PARTITIONED BY (ds STRING, hr STRING) STORED AS TEXTFILE;
> LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH "${hiveconf:test.data.dir}/kv1.txt" OVERWRITE INTO 
> TABLE srcpart PARTITION (ds="2008-04-09", hr="11");
> select * from srcpart;
> {code}
> I did not see the issue being hit by non-partitioned/textfile tables, but 
> that is just the luck of the path taken by the code. Inspection of my PG 
> metastore shows all the CLOB fields suffering from this issue.
