beeline null pointer exception

["Brotanek, Jan" <Ja...@adastragrp.com>]

Hello, I have problem executing following statement in Beeline version 1.2.1000.2.4.0.0-169 by Apache Hive CLI (beeline being invoked with config: --fastConnect=true --hive.cli.errors.ignore=true):

create table if not exists test.testorc

STORED AS ORC

as

select

*

from test.testorc_e
;

Error: Error while compiling statement: FAILED: NullPointerException null (state=42000,code=40000).

I played around with beeline settings and also with formatting (CR/LF) of query. However still getting that error. In Hive it works perfectly fine...

Thanks
Jan

You probably need to take a look at the HiveServer2 logs which might have a stack trace for that error.
