Can I direct;y load these tables in spark shell and run query? I tried with 1.val sqlContext = new org.apache.spark.sql.hive.HiveContext(sc) 2.qlContext.sql("FROM event_impressions select count(*)") where event_impressions is the table name. It give me error saying "org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: no such table event_impressions; line 1 pos 5" Does anybody hit similar issues? regards jeetendra ________________________________ NOTE: This message may contain information that is confidential, proprietary, privileged or otherwise protected by law.
