Cheng Lian updated SPARK-6644:
------------------------------
Summary: After adding new columns to a partitioned table and inserting data
to an old partition, data of newly added columns are all NULL (was:
[SPARK-SQL]when the partition schema does not match table schema(ADD COLUMN),
new column value is NULL)
> After adding new columns to a partitioned table and inserting data to an old
> partition, data of newly added columns are all NULL

> Key: SPARK-6644
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-6644
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 1.3.0
> Reporter: dongxu
>
> In Hive, the schema of a partition may differ from the table schema. For
> example, we may add new columns to the table after importing existing
> partitions. When using {{spark-sql}} to query the data in a partition whose
> schema is different from the table schema, problems may arise. Part of them
> have been solved in [PR #4289|https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/4289].
> However, after adding new column(s) to the table, when inserting data into
> old partitions, values of newly added columns are all {{NULL}}.
> The following snippet can be used to reproduce this issue:
> {code}
> case class TestData(key: Int, value: String)
> val testData = TestHive.sparkContext.parallelize((1 to 2).map(i =>
> TestData(i, i.toString))).toDF()
> testData.registerTempTable("testData")
> sql("DROP TABLE IF EXISTS table_with_partition ")
> sql(s"CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS table_with_partition(key int, value string)
> PARTITIONED by (ds string) location '${tmpDir.toURI.toString}'")
> sql("INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE table_with_partition PARTITION (ds = '1') SELECT
> key, value FROM testData")
> // Add new columns to the table
> sql("ALTER TABLE table_with_partition ADD COLUMNS(key1 string)")
> sql("ALTER TABLE table_with_partition ADD COLUMNS(destlng double)")
> sql("INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE table_with_partition PARTITION (ds = '1') SELECT
> key, value, 'test', 1.11 FROM testData")
> sql("SELECT * FROM table_with_partition WHERE ds =
> '1'").collect().foreach(println)
> {code}
> Actual result:
> {noformat}
> [1,1,null,null,1]
> [2,2,null,null,1]
> {noformat}
> Expected result:
> {noformat}
> [1,1,test,1.11,1]
> [2,2,test,1.11,1]
> {noformat}
