Hi, I believe my Hive version is Apache 1.2.0. I guessed it from the folder and hive-hwi.jar names.
I am trying to insert values into a column of type timestamp. It does not work This is how I create the table CREATE TABLE tmp (reporttime timestamp); I tried following insert queries INSERT INTO TABLE tmp VALUES(734196.3552); INSERT INTO TABLE tmp VALUES(734196); I read that values of timestamp could be integers which are interpreted as seconds since unix epoch time or float which are interpreted as seconds since unix epoch time with nanasecond precision or string of format 'YYYY-mm-dd'. I cannot use third string option as of now. So I am trying other two options i.e. int and float. When I do a select query, I get null I tried select to_date(reporttime) from tmp select reporttime from tmp Please help if you have any idea. -- Regards, Anand
