--------------------------------------
Summary: Improve validateTableCols error message
Key: HIVE-11534
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11534
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Hive
Reporter: Mohit Sabharwal
Assignee: Mohit Sabharwal
Priority: Minor
For tables created without column definition in the DDL (but referencing the
schema in the underlying file format like Avro), ObjectStore.validateTableCols
throws an exception that doesn't include the table and db name. This makes it
tedious to lookup table name in schema files.
Example:
{code}
ERROR org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore: Error retrieving statistics
via jdo
MetaException(message:Column wpp_mbrshp_hix_ik doesn't exist.)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore.validateTableCols(ObjectStore.java:6061)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore.getMTableColumnStatistics(ObjectStore.java:6012)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore.access$1000(ObjectStore.java:160)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore$6.getJdoResult(ObjectStore.java:6084)
at
org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.ObjectStore$6.getJdoResult(ObjectStore.java:6076)
{code}
We should add database and the table name to the error message.
