Soham, I think you need something like this:

SELECT ui.country, COUNT(1)
FROM ( SELECT DISTINCT userid
       FROM   users_audit
       WHERE  SUBSTR(ua.logtime, 1, 17) >= '2012-06-27 13:00'
       AND    SUBSTR(ua.logtime, 1, 17) <= '2012-06-27 14:00'
     ) ua
       JOIN
       users_info ui ON (ui.id = ua.userid)
GROUP BY
       ui.country;

Subject: Re: date datatype in hive

soham,

the reason u r getting the error is there may be multiple names associated with 
one country
so when you do  a group by there is no unique output to generate

so group by country, name will give you unique results

same is the case with select *

in case you want to sort the output you may try with order by country instead 
of group by
if you want to omit duplicates you can use distinct

so try something like

select count(*), country from users_info group by country
select count(*) from users_info group by country
select distinct name, country from users_info order by country
select name, county from users_info group by country, name

all above should work unless i made a typo error :)

Thanks Bejoy and Nitin for replyin
well now i got that thing ryt but then i have serious issues

in hive querying like some of such queries are

1)  select * from users_info group by country;

and this is giving me only the countries grouped alphabetically and
not any other information

2) select name,country from users_info group by country;

and this gives me an error
FAILED: Error in semantic analysis: Line 1:7 Expression not in GROUP
BY key 'name'

can someone help me out with this :)
