nirav patel updated HIVE-17236:
-------------------------------
Description:
Hive currently doesn't support wild card in path for external table. I think it
should considering mapreduce framework supports it and it's a common
requirement.
Following should work
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE testTable (val map<string, string>)
ROW FORMAT DELIMITED
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t'
LOCATION '/user/mycomp/customers/\\*/departments/partition/\*/sales.tsv';
