Hadoop Hive unable to move source to destination

Question

I am trying to use Hive 1.2.0 over Hadoop 2.6.0. I have created an employee table. However, when I run the following query:

hive> load data l         


        

Answer 1

The error might be due to permission issue on local filesystem.

Change the permission for local filesystem:

sudo chmod -R 777 /home/abc/employeedetails

Now, run:

hive> load data local inpath '/home/abc/employeedetails' into table employee;
