---------------------------------------
Summary: Error when trying to rename table with alter table after
using INSERT OVERWITE to populate the table
Key: SPARK-6043
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6043
Project: Spark
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 1.2.1
Reporter: Trystan Leftwich
If you populate a table using INSERT OVERWRITE and then try to rename the table
using alter table it fails with:
{noformat}
Error: org.apache.spark.sql.execution.QueryExecutionException: FAILED:
Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask.
Unable to alter table. (state=,code=0)
{noformat}
Using the following SQL statement creates the error:
{code:sql}
CREATE TABLE `tmp_table` (salesamount_c1 DOUBLE);
INSERT OVERWRITE table tmp_table SELECT
MIN(sales_customer.salesamount) salesamount_c1
FROM
(
SELECT
SUM(sales.salesamount) salesamount
FROM
factinternetsales sales
) sales_customer;
ALTER TABLE tmp_table RENAME to not_tmp;
{code}
But if you change the 'OVERWRITE' to be 'INTO' the SQL statement works.
This is happening on our CDH5.3 cluster with multiple workers, If we use the
CDH5.3 Quickstart VM the SQL does not produce an error. Both cases were spark
1.2.1 built for hadoop2.4+
