Thank you Sanjay. I did go through the code and found the value you mentioned but was not sure if I should override the value.
Regarding no data being sent to the HiveOutputModule for a number of windows, it could be a case since the upstream operator to hive module has the streaming window interval set to 1 min (since its doing an aggregation of counts, i didn't want to it emit the aggregation at the default window time but wait and have some considerable aggregated values before it emits to Hdfs sink operator) Regards Vivek -- View this message in context: http://apache-apex-users-list.78494.x6.nabble.com/NullPointerException-at-AbstractFSRollingOutputOperator-while-using-HiveOutputModule-tp1625p1629.html Sent from the Apache Apex Users list mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
