    Description

      • Created a parquet file from the Avro file which have 1 array data type and rest are primitive types. Avro Schema of the array data type. Eg:
        { "name" : "action", "type" : [ { "type" : "array", "items" : "string" }, "null" ] }
        
      • Created External Hive table with the Array type as below,
        create external table paraArray (action Array) partitioned by (partitionid int) row format serde 'parquet.hive.serde.ParquetHiveSerDe' stored as inputformat 'parquet.hive.MapredParquetInputFormat' outputformat 'parquet.hive.MapredParquetOutputFormat' location '/testPara'; 
        alter table paraArray add partition(partitionid=1) location '/testPara';
        
      • Run the following query(select action from paraArray limit 10) and the Map reduce jobs are failing with the following exception.
        Caused by: org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.HiveException: Hive Runtime Error while processing row [Error getting row data with exception java.lang.ClassCastException: parquet.hive.writable.BinaryWritable$DicBinaryWritable cannot be cast to org.apache.hadoop.io.ArrayWritable
