Hi,

I have been testing out the new PutOrc processor that was introduced in 1.7 to 
see if I can replace the ConvertAvroToOrc processer I currently use.
When I sent in some of the complex Avro messages in my flow I encountered the 
following error (see full stack further down)
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Error converting object of type 
org.apache.nifi.serialization.record.MapRecord to ORC type

The older ConvertAvroToOrc processor processed the flowfile without issues.
Also to note is that the PutOrc processor handles the flowfile fine if there is 
no Avro data with only the schema present.
It seems to be related to nestled "Record" types.

Should I create a bug myselfe or just report it here in the mailing list?

How to reproduce:

Avro schema: bug.avsc
{
  "name": "nifi_hive3_test",
  "namespace": "analytics.models.test",
  "type": "record",
  "fields": [
       {
      "name": "Serial",
      "type":
      {
        "name": "Serial",
        "namespace": "analytics.models.common.serial",
        "type": "record",
        "fields": [
          {
            "name": "Serial",
            "type": "long"
          }
        ]
      }
    }
  ]
}

Small python script to create an Avro file.
import avro.schema
from avro.datafile import DataFileReader, DataFileWriter
from avro.io import DatumReader, DatumWriter

schema = avro.schema.parse(open("bug.avsc", "rb").read())

writer = DataFileWriter(open("bug.avro", "wb"), DatumWriter(), schema)
writer.append({'Serial': {'Serial': 11088000000001615L}})
writer.close()
#Print whats entered into the avro file
reader1 = DataFileReader(open("bug.avro", "rb"), DatumReader())
for user in reader1:
    print user

Then just load the avro file using ListFIle -> FetchFile
