Hi, I have a partitioned external table in Hive, and in the partition directories there are other subdirectories that are not related to the table itself. Hive seems to want to scan those directories, as I am getting an error message when trying to do a SELECT on the table:
Failed with exception java.io.IOException:java.io.IOException: Not a file: hdfs://path/to/partition/path/to/subdir Also, it seems to ignore directories prefixed by an underscore (_directory). I am using hive 0.7.1 on Hadoop 0.20.2. Is there a way to force Hive to ignore all subdirectories in external tables and only look at files? Thanks in advance, -Dave
