I realize today a strange behavior of PIG in local mode (streaming + multiquery). I put here a minimal script to reproduce the problem.
Suppose an input file with multiple lines for example: # myInput 1 2 3 1 2 3 The pig cript is : # bug.pig MyInput = LOAD 'myInput; A = myInput GROUP BY $ 0; B = FOREACH A GENERATE FLATTEN (myInput); C = B STREAM THROUGH `cat`; D = myInput GROUP BY $ 0; E = FOREACH D GENERATE FLATTEN (myInput); STREAM THROUGH E F = `cat`; STORE C into 'output1; STORE F into 'output2; I run the script using the following command: pig -x local bug.pig We should find in output1 and output2 perfect copy of my input file ... but this is not the case. We find only one line (the first line of the file) output1/part cat * output2/part cat * For information, it seems that the script pig hadoop corresponding work properly. If I comment one of the two store operation, it works as expected (i think it's because on multiquery is run).
