Harsh J commented on HIVE-1083: ------------------------------- Hi, Can you confirm you used MR2, and that the config toggle specified on MAPREDUCE-1501 was turned on? > allow sub-directories for an external table/partition > ----------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1083 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1083 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Query Processor > Affects Versions: 0.6.0 > Reporter: Namit Jain > Assignee: Zheng Shao > Labels: inputformat > > Sometimes users want to define an external table/partition based on all files > (recursively) inside a directory. > Currently most of the Hadoop InputFormat classes do not support that. We > should extract all files recursively in the directory, and add them to the > input path of the job. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
