Did you run the insert into query twice? And did it append? From what I observred the query will complete successfully, but it overwrites instead of append. That's the problem.

I haven't used insert into but i observed a similar problem earlier- https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2617 You can check against the trunk or open a jira. ~Aniket On Thu, Sep 13, 2012 at 1:36 PM, Kaufman Ng kauf...@cloudera.com wrote: Does anyone know if insert into statement is supposed to work across databases/schemas?
