Hi Bejoy, I modified the load command as below
LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH '/home/cloudera/CrimeHive.csv' INTO TABLE crime_managed_native PARTITION (State='Alabama',State='California'); Now data is loaded however when I issue command as Select *from crime_managed_native where State='Alabama' No records are returned whereas (I have Alabama record in source file) Select *from crime_managed_native where State='California' It returns only California records. Does that mean only California records got inserted in table. But I see that entire file is stored under /user/hive/warehouse/learn.db/crime_managed_native/State=California and there is no directory for State=Alabama. Also, what happens with rest of the records which do not have state as Alabama / California. Do we have any documents which talks about partitioning in detail.

Kuldeep Couple of things I hoticed here are Your table is bucketed, when you load data into a bucketed table you need to enable hive.enforce.bucketing=true; Bucketing needs a MR job so you need to load the non bucketed data into a normal table and from that load to a bucketed table using 'Insert Overwrite'. Then another quick nit Your table is partitioned so you need to load your data into some partition but you have not spefied a partition in Load.

Hi I am trying to load a CSV file into HIve table. Everything works fine but when a fire "select * from tablename" command. It does not retun anything. --Create Table CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS learn.crime_managed_native ( NoState String, TypeofCrime String, Crime String, Year int, Count int) PARTITIONED BY (State String) CLUSTERED BY (Crime) SORTED BY (Year ASC) INTO 8 BUCKETS ROW FORMAT DELIMITED FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' STORED AS TEXTFILE; --Load Data LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH '/home/cloudera/CrimeHive.csv' INTO TABLE crime_managed_native; What could be the possible issue.
