Yulei Yang commented on HIVE-12037: ----------------------------------- I solved this issue by parameter set orc.compress=SNAPPY, while select count(*) from this_table still facing same exception. BTW: though set orc.create.index=false can make sql run successfully, but hive reading from this table will return null even if this table has data. > ORC: allow disabling orc meta index for large string type column > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-12037 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12037 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Components: StorageHandler > Reporter: Kshitiz Tripathi > Priority: Major > Labels: orcfile > > Our ORC table consist of a large string type field with average size >20KB. > The ORC meta explodes because of such field and we need a switch in hive to > disable meta generation for it. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
