I am ordering the columns before doing union, so I think that should not be an issue,
* String[] columns_original_order = baseDs.columns(); String[] columns = baseDs.columns(); Arrays.sort(columns); baseDs=baseDs.selectExpr(columns); incDsForPartition=incDsForPartition.selectExpr(columns); if (baseDs.count() > 0) { return baseDs.union(incDsForPartition).selectExpr(columns_original_order); } else { return incDsForPartition.selectExpr(columns_original_order);* On Mon, Jun 4, 2018 at 2:31 PM, Jorge Machado <jom...@me.com> wrote: > Try the same union with a dataframe without the arrays types.
