Hive Sum Query on Decimal Column Returns Zero When Expected Result Has Too Many Digits

Hello,

I have an issue where I'm running a sum query on a decimal column and I'm
getting 0 as the result whenever my expected result is around 22 digits or
larger.

I created a stack overflow question here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48836455/hive-sum-query-on-decimal-column-returns-zero-when-expected-result-has-too-many

Is this a known issue or is this something that is likely an issue with the
way that I have Hive setup?

Any help would be great appreciated.

Thank you,
Evan
