Hi Hive Users.

I'm a newbie to hive so this might be a dumb configuration issue.  I am
trying to run Hive on Amazon EC2 and getting an error when attempting to
follow the sample script from the Hive wiki site.  I'm able to create and
load the data but not able to read the content of the file.  Was there a
step that I missed during the Hive startup?

Thanks,
-ray
