Richard Ding commented on PIG-1169: ----------------------------------- In this case, a workaroud is to disable the multi-query optimization (use command line option -M). > Top-N queries produce incorrect results when a store statement is added > between order by and limit statement > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: PIG-1169 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1169 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Bug > Components: impl > Affects Versions: 0.7.0 > Reporter: Richard Ding > Assignee: Richard Ding > > ??We tried to get top N results after a groupby and sort, and got different > results with or without storing the full sorted results. Here is a skeleton > of our pig script.?? > {code} > raw_data = Load '<input_files>' AS (f1, f2, ..., fn); > grouped = group raw_data by (f1, f2); > data = foreach grouped generate FLATTEN(group). SUM(raw_data.fk) as value; > ordered = order data by value DESC parallel 10; > topn = limit ordered 10; > store ordered into 'outputdir/full'; > store topn into 'outputdir/topn'; > {code} > ??With the statement 'store ordered ...', top N results are incorrect, but > without the statement, results are correct. Has anyone seen this before? I > know a similar bug has been fixed in the multi-query release. We are on pig > .4 and hadoop .20.1.?? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
