Distinct followed by a Join results in Invalid size 0 for a tuple error -----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: PIG-558 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-558 Project: Pig Issue Type: Bug Components: impl Affects Versions: types_branch Reporter: Viraj Bhat Fix For: types_branch The following Pig script does a right outer join after the DISTINCT. {code} nonuniqtable1 = LOAD 'table1' AS (f1:chararray); table1 = DISTINCT nonuniqtable1; table2 = LOAD 'table2' AS (f1:chararray, f2:int); temp = COGROUP table1 BY f1 INNER, table2 BY f1; DESCRIBE temp; explain temp; dump temp; {code} ======================================================================================================== It results in the following error. This is true for other join types as well. ======================================================================================================== java.io.IOException: Invalid size 0 for a tuple at org.apache.pig.data.DataReaderWriter.readDatum(DataReaderWriter.java:57) at org.apache.pig.data.DataReaderWriter.readDatum(DataReaderWriter.java:62) at org.apache.pig.builtin.BinStorage.getNext(BinStorage.java:90) at org.apache.pig.backend.executionengine.PigSlice.next(PigSlice.java:103) at org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.executionengine.mapReduceLayer.SliceWrapper$1.next(SliceWrapper.java:157) at org.apache.pig.backend.hadoop.executionengine.mapReduceLayer.SliceWrapper$1.next(SliceWrapper.java:133) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask$TrackedRecordReader.next(MapTask.java:165) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapRunner.run(MapRunner.java:45) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.MapTask.run(MapTask.java:227) at org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TaskTracker$Child.main(TaskTracker.java:2209) ======================================================================================================== -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
