[jira] [Created] (PARQUET-723) parquet is not storing the type for the column.

Narasimha created PARQUET-723:
---------------------------------

             Summary: parquet is not storing the type for the column.
                 Key: PARQUET-723
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-723
             Project: Parquet
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: parquet-format
            Reporter: Narasimha


1. Create Text file format table 
	CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE IF NOT EXISTS emp(
	id INT,
	first_name STRING,
	last_name STRING,
	dateofBirth STRING,
	join_date INT
	)
	COMMENT 'This is Employee Table Date Of Birth of type String'
	ROW FORMAT DELIMITED
	FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
	LINES TERMINATED BY '\n'
	STORED AS TEXTFILE
	LOCATION '/user/employee/beforePartition';

2. Load the data into table
	load data inpath '/user/somupoc_timestamp/employeeData_partitioned.csv' into table emp;
	select * from emp;

3. Create Partitioned table with file format as Parquet (dateofBirth STRING))

	create external table emp_afterpartition(
	id int, first_name STRING, last_name STRING, dateofBirth STRING)
	COMMENT 'Employee partitioned table with dateofBirth of type string'
	partitioned by (join_date int)
	STORED as parquet
	LOCATION '/user/employee/afterpartition';

4.  Fetch the data from Partitioned column

	set hive.exec.dynamic.partition=true;  
	set hive.exec.dynamic.partition.mode=nonstrict; 
	insert overwrite table emp_afterpartition partition (join_date) select * from emp;
	select * from emp_afterpartition;
5. Create Partitioned table with file format as Parquet (dateofBirth TIMESTAMP))

	CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE IF NOT EXISTS employee_afterpartition_timestamp_parq(
	id INT,first_name STRING,last_name STRING,dateofBirth TIMESTAMP)
	COMMENT 'employee partitioned table with dateofBirth of type TIMESTAMP'
	PARTITIONED BY (join_date INT)
	STORED AS PARQUET
	LOCATION '/user/employee/afterpartition';

	select * from employee_afterpartition_timestamp_parq;
        -- 0 records returned
	impala ::	alter table employee_afterpartition_timestamp_parq RECOVER PARTITIONS;
	Hive ::		MSCK REPAIR TABLE employee_afterpartition_timestamp_parq;
	-- MSCK works in Hive and  RECOVER PARTITIONS works in Impala -- metastore check command with the repair table option:

 	select * from employee_afterpartition_timestamp_parq;

Actual Result :: Failed with exception java.io.IOException:org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.HiveException: java.lang.ClassCastException: org.apache.hadoop.io.Text cannot be cast to org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.io.TimestampWritable

Expected Result :: Data should display

Note: if file format is text file instead of Parquet then I am able to fetch the data.
Observation : Two tables having different column type pointing to same location(HDFS ).
