Namit Jain commented on HIVE-1975: ---------------------------------- Some minor comments: 1. Can you add a testcase - use build as a temporary directory to add data ? 2. Add some comments explaining that the multi-level directory move is not atomic. In your example, it is possible that /x/y/z/1/2/3 is created, but /x/y/z/1/2/4. It is same as any multi-partition insert (dynamic insert), but would be good to explicitly call it out. > "insert overwrite directory" Not able to insert data with multi level > directory path > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-1975 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1975 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Query Processor > Affects Versions: 0.5.0 > Environment: Hadoop 0.20.1, Hive0.5.0 and SUSE Linux Enterprise > Server 10 SP2 (i586) - Kernel 2.6.16.60-0.21-smp (5). > Reporter: Chinna Rao Lalam > Assignee: Chinna Rao Lalam > Attachments: HIVE-1975.1.patch, HIVE-1975.2.patch, HIVE-1975.patch > > > Below query execution is failed > Ex: > {noformat} > insert overwrite directory '/HIVEFT25686/chinna/' select * from dept_j; > {noformat} -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
