Can you provide precise table definitions (DDL, describe formatted, etc and statements you are running (with explain plan)? (the simplest version that reproduces the issue) Also your hive-site.xml. Would be even better if you file a JIRA with the same.
You are clearly hitting a bug but it's impossible to be sure what the exact issue is based on the info provided.

Please let me know if you have found the solution. I observed that if hive.enforce.bucketing is set to false in hive- site.xml, then this issue is not faced, but hive configuration for ACID requires this property to be set to true. Thanks, Ivneet
