Thanks for the reply guys,

I have tried using the below cmd

 usr/local/hive-0.9.0# load data local inpath
‘/usr/local/hadoop_dir/hadoop/big_data/vender_details.txt’ into table
vender;

in the above hive path we cant load the data using the above cmd ?

In the below there  is an syntax error
plz correct it

hive> create external table vender(vender string,supplier string,order_date
string,quantity
int)['./usr/local/hadoop_dir/hadoop/big_data/vender_details.txt'] [ row
format delimited fields terminated by ' ' stored as textfile] ;

FAILED: Parse Error: line 1:90 mismatched input '[' expecting EOF near ')'
Thanks in advance

Regards
shaik.

Hi Shaik

For the correct syntax for create table statement please refer
https://cwiki.apache.org/Hive/languagemanual-ddl.html#LanguageManualDDL-CreateTable 
Please try our this command to avoid the syntax error

Create external table vender(vender string,supplier string,order_date string,quantity int)
row format delimited fields terminated by ' ' 
stored as textfile 

LOCATION '<hdfs dir>';

Replace 'hdfs dir' with the required director path in hdfs

Then try out the LOAD DATA LOCAL command, since your are loading data from lfs to hdfs if the data volume is large (100G) it'll take some time.

Regards
Bejoy KS

Hi shaik

Step 1
Create an external table with the desired location in hdfs. Your data files for the hive table will be stored in this location/directory in hdfs.

Step 2
Now use the LOAD DATA command to load data from any other location  into this table. On successful execution of this command the data files will be moved to the table's location .( specified in previous step)

Alternatively you can move or copy files within hdfs  using hadoop fs copy commands.
