RE: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.Double cannot be cast to java.lang.String

I am not familiar with JsonSerde, but your data might contain doubles that you didn't know about. LOAD does not check whether the data's actual types match the types specified in the schema.

Subject: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.Double cannot be cast to java.lang.String

Hello,

I got the following exception when I made a simple query in my table.
I made the table to store email header data with the following command:

CREATE TABLE mytable (xfrom STRING, xto STRING, subject STRING, cc STRING, xgeoip STRING, receivedspf STRING, xoriginatingip STRING, messageid STRING, replyto STRING, xenvelopefrom STRING, contenttype STRING, xoriginatingip2 STRING, version STRING, fromaddr STRING, recaddr STRING) PARTITIONED BY (year int,month int,day int,dat INT) ROW FORMAT SERDE 'org.apache.hadoop.hive.contrib.serde2.JsonSerde';

then I insert some data using LOAD DATA LOCAL INPATH "/mypipe" INTO TABLE mytable PARTITION(....); in my java app.
the pipe contains json data of course;

Everything works fine, but when I want to get some data:
hive>add jar  hive-json-serde-0.1.jar;
hive>from mytable select xfrom where year=2010 month=9 day=30;
or
hive>from mytable select subject where year=2010 month=9 day=30;
these works fine.
BUT
hive>from mytable select xto where year=2010 month=9 day=30;
fails with the following error:

I don't know where is this Double variable, everything must be stored as String.
xto field contanins the To field of the email header.


Thanks

RE: java.lang.RuntimeException: java.lang.Double cannot be cast to java.lang.String

One way is to inspect the data files in the table to see if there's any wrongly typed data in them. First, find the directory of your table where the files are, using Hive's "describe extended <tableName>". Then, use hadoop fs -ls to find the files and hadoop fs -cat (or -get or whatever your favorite way is) to get at the file contents.
