(If you're using HiveServer2, the you can look at those logs, or your client logs if you are using the Hive client directly.) The error is caused by a file system error where it's unable to move the file. The file system should log an error message describing why it failed.</P> Fri, 15 Jan 2016 00:56:18 GMT gates 2016-01-15T00:56:18Z
