-----------------------------------

             Summary: --incremental=true in Beeline is not compatible with Binary columns (at least for select * from ...)
                 Key: HIVE-7448
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-7448
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Clients
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Xingwen Zhang
            Priority: Minor


We would like to report that "--incremental=true" in Beeline is not compatible with Binary columns (at least for queries like "select * from some_table_with_a_binary_column limit 10;"). The error trace we got was:
Error: Invalid column type: -2 (state=,code=0)

The error was gone when we reverted back to " "--incremental=false".

BTW: we are using Hive 0.12.
