I resolved the issue with following way. Configure "hive.stats.dbconnectionstring=jdbc:derby:;databaseName=/home/TempStore". This works only in single node cluster.

(also, raw_data_size is 0) ----- hive> analyze table lineitem compute statistics; Total MapReduce jobs = 1 Launching Job 1 out of 1 Number of reduce tasks is set to 0 since there's no reduce operator Starting Job = job_201208291425_0011, Tracking URL = http://hadoop-node1:50030/jobdetails.jsp?jobid=job_201208291425_0011 Kill Command = /usr/lib/hadoop-0.20/bin/hadoop job -Dmapred.job.tracker=hadoop-node1:8021 -kill job_201208291425_0011 Hadoop job information for Stage-0: number of mappers: 3; number of reducers: 0 2012-08-29 15:16:16,133 Stage-0 map = 0%, reduce = 0% 2012-08-29 15:16:20,154 Stage-0 map = 100%, reduce = 0% 2012-08-29 15:16:22,168 Stage-0 map = 100%, reduce = 100% Ended Job = job_201208291425_0011 Table sf1.lineitem stats: [num_partitions: 0, num_files: 1, num_rows: 0, total_size: 759863287, raw_data_size: 0] ----- I tried the version 0.7.1, 0.8.1, 0.9.0 and the same result. Is there anything else I have to do to make it work ? Also, is statistics only works for managed tables ? I tried it for external tables and it doesn't seem working. (all the values are 0 ) Thanks, Hiroyuki
