Xiu (Joe) Guo commented on SPARK-12262: --------------------------------------- The property {code}spark.sql.hive.convertMetastoreParquet{code} promotes parquet tables with built-in access instead of going through Hive metastore route. I am thinking maybe the `describe extended` behavior here is intended? A workaround (or intended usage) would be: {code} set spark.sql.hive.convertMetastoreParquet=false; {code} before describing a parquet table. > describe extended doesn't return table on detail info tabled stored as > PARQUET format > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-12262 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12262 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 1.5.2 > Reporter: pin_zhang > > 1. start hive server with start-thriftserver.sh > 2. create table table1 (id int) ; > create table table2(id int) STORED AS PARQUET; > 3. describe extended table1 ; > return detailed info > 4. describe extended table2 ; > result has no detailed info -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
