Venki Korukanti commented on DRILL-1301: ---------------------------------------- Hive table is created in Hive 0.13, but Hive storage plugin in Drill is only supports Hive 0.12 tables. Either of the following can work: 1. Use Hive 0.12 which needs decimal type in table definition to be changed to just DECIMAL with no precision and scale 2. Apply DRILL-1347 patch which upgrades Hive storage plugin to Hive 0.13. > Fail to query from hive tables that have decimal columns > -------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DRILL-1301 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-1301 > Project: Apache Drill > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Storage - Hive > Affects Versions: 0.5.0 > Reporter: Krystal > Assignee: Aditya Kishore > Priority: Blocker > Fix For: 0.6.0 > > > git.commit.id.abbrev=687b9b0 > I have a table in hive with the following schema: > hive> describe voter_test; > OK > voter_id int > name varchar(30) > age tinyint > registration string > contributions decimal(6,2) > voterzone smallint > create_time timestamp > When I run any select against this table from drill, it fails with parsing > error: > 0: jdbc:drill:schema=hive> select * from voter_test limit 5; > Query failed: Failure while parsing sql.
