unit tests fail consistently when run according to instructions on "hive how to contribute" page. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-2174 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2174 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Build Infrastructure, Testing Infrastructure Affects Versions: 0.7.1, 0.8.0 Reporter: Patrick Hunt Priority: Critical The unit tests fail consistently when run according to the doc on hive how to contribute page. Specifically if you: 1) checkout the code afresh (or 'git clean -xdf' - basically be sure to start with a _very_ clean slate) 2) ant clean test tar -logfile ant.log the tests will fail (you can run just bucketmapjoin1.q instead of all the tests, it exhibits this behavior). However if you instead do the following 2) ant clean package test tar -logfile ant.log the tests pass (notice the addition to package to the targets). I've tried this on 5 different systems (mix of linux 32/64 bit) and the result is consistent. Running ant clean test -Dtestcase=TestCliDriver -Dqfile=bucketmapjoin1.q I see the following reason for failure {quote} [junit] 743c743 [junit] < numRows 0 [junit] --- [junit] > numRows 464 [junit] 773c773 [junit] < numRows 0 [junit] --- [junit] > numRows 464 [junit] 793c793 [junit] < numRows 0 [junit] --- [junit] > numRows 464 {quote} which leads me to believe it's a metastore issue (statistics?) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
