Reporter: shiva
HI,
AVRO source file field data type have int but we want to load the data using
the string,
we have created the AVSC schema for that field has string.
getting error while doing the select * from table name;
1 >> Created a table in Hive with AVRO data.
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE tweets (username string, tweet string, timestamp bigint)
COMMENT 'A table backed by Avro data with the Avro schema stored in HDFS'
ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.avro.AvroSerDe'
STORED AS
INPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerInputFormat'
OUTPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerOutputFormat'
LOCATION '/home/neha/test_data/avro_create_data'
TBLPROPERTIES
('avro.schema.literal'='{"namespace":"com.miguno.avro","name":"Tweet","type":"record","fields":[
{"name" : "username","type" : "string","doc" : "Name of the user account on
Twitter.com"}
,
{"name" : "tweet","type":"string","doc" : "The content of the Twitter message"}
,
{"name" : "timestamp", "type" : "long", "doc" : "Unix epoch time in seconds"}
]}');
2 >> Altered type of a column (to a compatible type) using ALTER TABLE. In this
example, altered type for column "timestamp" from "long" to "int".
ALTER TABLE tweets SET TBLPROPERTIES
('avro.schema.literal'='{"namespace":"com.miguno.avro","name":"Tweet","type":"record","fields":[
{"name" : "username","type" : "string","doc" : "Name of the user account on
Twitter.com"}
,
{"name" : "tweet","type":"string","doc" : "The content of the Twitter message"}
,
{"name" : "timestamp", "type" : "int", "doc" : "Unix epoch time in seconds"}
]}');
3 >> Now, a select query on this table fails with following error.
hive> select * from tweets;
OK
Failed with exception java.io.IOException:org.apache.avro.AvroTypeException:
Found "long", expecting "int"
