Long subject, I know.. let me explain a bit more about the problem: I'm trying to load a file into a hive table (this is on an EMR instance) for that I create an external table, and I set the location to the folder on an s3 bucket, where the file resides. The problem is that even though the table is created correctly, when I do a "select * from table" it returns nothing. I'm not seeing errors on the logs either, so I don't know what can be happening....
Also, probably important: I'm using a custom SerDe that I did not write...but I do have the code for it. I'm quite new to hive, so I appreciate any kind of pointers you can throw at me. Thanks! Fernando Doglio
