--------------------------------------
Summary: Wrong error message when unsupported complex type comes
from * expression
Key: IMPALA-11722
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-11722
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Frontend
Reporter: Daniel Becker
The following query fails with a NullPointerException:
{code:java}
select * from functional_orc_def.complextypestbl;
ERROR: NullPointerException: null
{code}
The table contains a struct, {{{}nested_struct{}}}, which is not supported yet
because it contains collections. If the columns are listed explicitly, the
error message is the correct one:
{code:java}
select id, int_array, int_array_array, int_map, int_map_array, nested_struct
from functional_orc_def.complextypestbl;
ERROR: AnalysisException: Struct containing a collection type is not allowed in
the select list.{code}
The same error message should be returned in the select * case.
