[jira] [Commented] (SPARK-10562) .partitionBy() creates the metastore partition columns in all lowercase, but persists the data path as MixedCase resulting in an error when the data is later attempted to query.

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

It seems that I am running into this in version 1.5.1, are the Affects Version/s: correct?

> When using DataFrame.write.partitionBy().saveAsTable() it creates the partiton by columns in all lowercase in the meta-store.  However, it writes the data to the filesystem using mixed-case.
> This causes an error when running a select against the table.
> {noformat}
> from pyspark.sql import Row
> # Create a data frame with mixed case column names
> myRDD = sc.parallelize([Row(Name="John Terry", Goals=1, Year=2015),
>                        Row(Name="Frank Lampard", Goals=15, Year=2012)])
> myDF = sqlContext.createDataFrame(myRDD)
> # Write this data out to a parquet file and partition by the Year (which is a mixedCase name)
> myDF.write.partitionBy("Year").saveAsTable("chelsea_goals")
> %sql show create table chelsea_goals;
> --The metastore is showwing a partition column name of all lowercase "year"
> # Verify that the data is written with appropriate partitions
> display(dbutils.fs.ls("/user/hive/warehouse/chelsea_goals"))
> {noformat}
> {code:sql}
> %sql -- Now try to run a query against this table
> select * from chelsea_goals

> Error in SQL statement: UncheckedExecutionException: java.lang.RuntimeException: Partition column year not found in schema StructType(StructField(Goals,LongType,true), StructField(Name,StringType,true), StructField(Year,LongType,true))
