I have run into similar issue with avro files . The solution was to fix 
upstream jobs  that were writing data to those directories . In our case the  
writers were not flushed/closed correctly during certain  events which caused 
the   issue . Fixing those prevented these 0 sized files.

Thanks Thai. I have mentioned wrongly Folder Name, it 's same DAY=20180325 
(Folder) and same has Filename. actually in our upstream, our source table is 
partitioned by Date. Whenever a table is partitioned, we see Zero Byte. Now 
when we create external table with partitioned by columns and fire select query 
no data is returned. . If I delete manually those files (Zero Bytes), we were 
able to read.

Your external table is referencing the .../day=201803250 location which is 
empty. Point your table to the capital .../DAY=201803250 and you should be able 
to read the data there.

Also, it looks like you want external partitioned table. You’ll need to create 
an external table with a partition clause, then alter the table and add 
partition for each of the ../DAY=someday path that you have.

Hi,

Can any one faced issue while fetching data from external table. We are copying 
data from upstream system into our storage S3. As part of copy, directories 
along with Zero bytes files are been copied. Source File Format is in JSON 
format.  Below is Folder Hierarchy Structure


 DATE  -->  <Folder>

       <DAY=201803250> ---> Folder

                     1.json.gz  --> File

                      2.json.gz

        <day=201803250> ---> Empty Zero Bytes Files.

Please find below screenshot

We are trying to create external table with JSON Serde.

ADD JAR 
wasb://jsonse...@xyz.blob.core.windows.net/json/json-serde-1.3.9.jar<mailto:wasb://jsonse...@xyz.blob.core.windows.net/json/json-serde-1.3.9.jar>;
 SET hive.mapred.supports.subdirectories=TRUE;
 SET mapred.input.dir.recursive=TRUE;
SET hive.merge.mapfiles = true;
SET hive.merge.mapredfiles = true;
SET hive.merge.tezfiles = true;


 DROP TABLE IF EXISTS Ext_STG1;
 CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE Ext_STG1(Col1 String, Col2 String, Col3 String) ROW 
FORMAT SERDE 'org.openx.data.jsonserde.JsonSerDe' WITH SERDEPROPERTIES 
("case.insensitive" = "true", "ignore.malformed.json" = "true")
STORED AS TEXTFILE LOCATION 
'wasb://contain...@xyz.blob.core.windows.net/date/day=201803250/<mailto:wasb://contain...@xyz.blob.core.windows.net/date/day=201803250/>'
 TBLPROPERTIES ('serialization.null.format' = '');

select * from Ext_STG1 limit 100;


Above Query shows Empty Results.


When I delete Zero bytes files, then i could see data from select external 
table. Is this expected behaviour. Is there any setting for ignoring Zero bytes 
files in hive external table
