> I have created a external table and when I provide the location of the data for this table I get the following error:
> FAILED: Error in metadata: MetaException(message:java.lang.IllegalStateException: Can't overwrite cause)
> FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask
> Also I am able to load the same file using PIG Script using the PigStorage() loader function.
> I have the following permissions on the file: -rw-rw-r-- 
> and on the folder where this file resides (Giving the path of this folder in location in the query ) : drwxrwxr-x 
> What can be the cause for this and how to correct this error ?
