----------------------------

             Summary: With different parameters  or column number dense_rank 
function gets different count distinct results 
                 Key: HIVE-8590
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8590
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: UDF
    Affects Versions: 0.13.1
         Environment: cdh 4.6.0/hive0.13
            Reporter: ericni


We create a table with sql which contains the  dense_rank function,and then run 
count distinct on this table,
we found that with diffrent dense_rank parameters or even defferent columns,we 
will get the defferent count distinct results:
1.Less data will be ok(in our test case,200 million rows will get the same 
results,but 300 million rows will get the different results )
2.Different dense_rank parameters may be get the different results ,e.g  
"dense_rank() over(distribute by a,b sort by c desc)" and "dense_rank() 
over(distribute by a sort by c desc)"
3.All window functions(rank,row_number,dense_rank) have this problem
4.Less column number may be ok
5.Count(1) is ok,but Count distinct gets different results
6.It seems that some rows have been lost and some rows repeated
