Hi- I'm having a problem using CombineHiveInputSplit. I believe this was patched in http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-74
I'm currently running hadoop 20.1 using hive trunk. hive-default.xml has the following property: <property> <name>hive.input.format</name> <value></value> <description>The default input format, if it is not specified, the system assigns it. It is set to HiveInputFormat for hadoop versions 17, 18 and 19, whereas it is set to CombinedHiveInputFormat for hadoop 20. The user can always overwrite it - if there is a bug in CombinedHiveInputFormat, it can always be manually set to HiveInputFormat. </description> </property> I added the following to hive-site.xml: ( Notice, the description in hive-default.xml has CombinedHiveInputFormat which does not work for me - the property value seems to be Combine(-d) ) <property> <name>hive.input.format</name> <value>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.CombineHiveInputFormat</value> <description>The default input format, if it is not specified, the system assigns it. It is set to HiveInputFormat for hadoop versions 17, 18 and 19, whereas it is set to CombinedHiveInputFormat for hadoop 20. The user can always overwrite it - if there is a bug in CombinedHiveInputFormat, it can always be manually set to HiveInputFormat. </description> </property> When I launch a job the cli exits immediately: hive> select count(1) from my_table; Total MapReduce jobs = 1 Number of reduce tasks determined at compile time: 1 In order to change the average load for a reducer (in bytes): set hive.exec.reducers.bytes.per.reducer=<number> In order to limit the maximum number of reducers: set hive.exec.reducers.max=<number> In order to set a constant number of reducers: set mapred.reduce.tasks=<number> FAILED: Execution Error, return code 2 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.ExecDriver hive> exit ; If I set the property value to org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.HiveInputFormat, the job runs fine. Suggestions ? Is there something that I am missing ? Thanks -Matt
