Ashutosh Chauhan commented on HIVE-4186:
----------------------------------------
There is no file data/files/part_tiny.txt on trunk at the moment. However since
this bug occur during query compile phase, you don't need load data statement
in any case. Even selecting on empty table will demonstrate the problem. So, I
will suggest to get rid of load data statement from the patch for now.
