Description

2016-08-05T09:45:16,488  INFO [main] physical.Vectorizer: Failed to vectorize
2016-08-05T09:45:16,488  INFO [main] physical.Vectorizer: Cannot vectorize select expression: Const varchar(1) f

The constant throws an illegal argument because the varchar precision is lost in the pipeline.
