Description

git.commit.id.abbrev=3b19076

When I try to access a field within a map (without using an alias), below is the error I get.

0: jdbc:drill:schema=dfs_eea> select map.rm from `data.json`;
Error: exception while executing query: Failure while executing query. (state=,code=0)

There is no message from drill and the chances of users hitting this scenario is very high. So I am marking this as critical.
