Josh Rosen updated SPARK-39422: ------------------------------- Description: If you run `SHOW CREATE TABLE` against a Hive table which uses an unsupported Serde configuration, Spark will return an error message like {code:java} org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: Failed to execute SHOW CREATE TABLE against table rcFileTable, which is created by Hive and uses the following unsupported serde configuration SERDE: org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.columnar.LazyBinaryColumnarSerDe INPUTFORMAT: org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.RCFileInputFormat OUTPUTFORMAT: org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.RCFileOutputFormat {code} which is confusing to end users. In this situation, I think the error should suggest `SHOW CREATE TABLE ... AS SERDE` to users (similar to other error messages in this code path). > SHOW CREATE TABLE should suggest 'AS SERDE' for Hive tables with unsupported > serde configurations > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-39422 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-39422 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 3.0.0 > Reporter: Josh Rosen > Assignee: Josh Rosen > Priority: Major > > If you run `SHOW CREATE TABLE` against a Hive table which uses an unsupported > Serde configuration, Spark will return an error message like > {code:java} > org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: Failed to execute SHOW CREATE TABLE > against table rcFileTable, which is created by Hive and uses the following > unsupported serde configuration > SERDE: org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.columnar.LazyBinaryColumnarSerDe > INPUTFORMAT: org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.RCFileInputFormat OUTPUTFORMAT: > org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.RCFileOutputFormat {code} > which is confusing to end users. > In this situation, I think the error should suggest `SHOW CREATE TABLE ...
