Problem creating external table to a sequence file on HDFS

[Ranjitha Chandrashekar <Ra...@hcl.com>]

Hi

I am trying to create a external table to a sequence file on HDFS.

I have my own input format and a SerDe, which is compiled into a jar and added in HIVE. Inspite of doing this, I get the following error.

Please Suggest.

hive> create table seq (key STRING, value STRING) ROW FORMAT SERDE 'com.org.SequenceFileKeyRecordReader' STORED AS INPUTFORMAT 'com.org.SequenceFileKeyInputFormat' OUTPUTFORMAT 'org.apache.hadoop.mapred.SequenceFileOutputFormat' location '/user/hiveFiles/';
FAILED: Error in metadata: Cannot validate serde: com.org.SequenceFileKeyRecordReader
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask
hive>

Thanks
Ranjitha.
