Hive error: java.io.EOFException: Unexpected end of input stream

I am running an Hive query (my execution engine is Tez) on an external table with gz files. The error message i get is "java.io.EOFException: Unexpected end of input stream". I have done a check on HDFS for corrupt files and it returns a healthy status. Anyone come across a similar issue?

The issue was that some files with zero file size were causing the error. The zero-sized files were moved out and issue was resolved.

Check for more details and got error as : "Unexpected end of input stream"

Now, Get the hdfs LOCATION for the table by using below command on HUE or HIVE shell:

show create table <table-name>;

Check for the zero byte size files and remove them from hdfs location using below command:

hdfs dfs -rm -skipTrash $(hdfs dfs -ls -R <hdfs_location> | grep -v "^d" | awk '{if ($5 == 0) print $8}')

Try running again our query which ran successfully this time.
