Do you know how to create a RCFILE to be compressed? I tried to using the Insert statement to create RCFILE, but it is not be compressed. I did the step by step. 1.create table raw_test(c1 int ,c2 string) ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' Stored as textfile; 2.load text file to textfile table Hive > LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH 'test.txt.gz' INTO TABLE raw_test; 3.create rcfile table and data Hive > create table rcfile_test stored by rcfile as select * from raw_test; The RCFILE were created success, But it is not be compressed. Can you give me any advice? thanks. > -----Original Message----- > From: trang van anh [mailto:anh...@vtc.vn] > Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2011 7:23 PM > To: user@hive.apache.org > Subject: Re: problem with load data from local file system into RCFILE table > > hi , > > "LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH 'test.txt' INTO TABLE text" that is actual copy > text.txt file to folder in hdfs so that HIVE throws invalid format exception. > > If you want to load file test.txt into hive table, you can create table > with properties that is suitable format of file. > > > > On 11/2/2011 3:43 PM, weimin zhu wrote: > > Hi > > > > I have problem with loading data into RCFILE table from local file system. > > I am using hive 0.7.1 of cloudera's distribution. > > > > 1.create table > > create table test(c1 int,c2 string) > > ROW FORMAT DELIMITED > > FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' > > Stored as RCFILE; > > > > 2.load text file into table > > LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH 'test.txt' INTO TABLE text; > > > > Hive command line throwing errors as the following: > > > > Loading data to table default.test > > Failed with exception Wrong file format.
