---------------------------------
Summary: SELECTing nulls returns nothing
Key: HIVE-2987
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2987
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.9.0
Environment: Tested using 0.9.0rc1, hbase 0.92.1, hadoop 0.20.2-cdh3u2
Reporter: Oliver Meyn
Priority: Critical
Given an hbase table defined as 'test' with a single column family 'a', rowkey
of type string, and two "rows" as follows:
key:1,a:lat=60.0,a:long=50.0,a:precision=10
key:2,a:lat=54
And an hive table created overtop of it as follows:
CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE hbase_test (
id STRING,
latitude STRING,
longitude STRING,
precision STRING
)
STORED BY 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.hbase.HBaseStorageHandler'
WITH SERDEPROPERTIES ("hbase.columns.mapping" =
":key#s,a:lat#s,a:long#s,a:precision#s")
TBLPROPERTIES(
"hbase.table.name" = "test",
"hbase.table.default.storage.type" = "binary"
);
The query SELECT id, precision FROM hbase_test WHERE id = '2' returns no
result. Expected behaviour is to return:
'2',NULL
If the query is changed to include a non-null result, eg SELECT id, latitude,
precision FROM hbase_test WHERE id = '2' the result is as expected:
'2','54',NULL
