> Select count(*) on a text table that has partitions defined in the create statement, but no actual partitions (e.g. file path is /db/table/file.txt, instead of /db/table/partition=1/file.txt) you will end up getting counts that do not match hive and are a multiple of the actual count.
> Will work on re-production, but it appears to be caused by two different values for the partition column defined, so we saw 2x the correct count. 
> The error can be corrected by re-defining the table without partitions of course, but would prefer an error over an incorrect query result.
