Strange issue with beeline

I was working with beeline for quite a long time and this morning I got a strange issue. When I executed the below simple beeline command I didn't get any output.

beeline -u jdbc:hive2://10.241.1.8:10000 -f testarea/hive.hql

here is what I get

$ beeline -u jdbc:hive2://10.241.1.8:10000 -f testarea/hive.hql 
scan complete in 3ms 
Connecting to jdbc:hive2://10.241.1.8:10000

Driver: Hive JDBC (version 0.13.1-cdh5.3.6)

0: jdbc:hive2://10.241.1.8:10000> select count (*) from active_139;
Closing: 0: jdbc:hive2://10.241.1.8:10000

the hive.hql contains the below hive query

select count (*) from active_139;

However if I execute the same hive query from beeline it works.

$ beeline -u jdbc:hive2://10.241.1.8:10000 -e 'select count (*) from active_139;'
scan complete in 3ms

Any body got a clue on this?

After a lot of trial and error I found the issue. The hive.hql file was expecting a new line at the end of the query which is a bug in Hive 0.13.1 and has been fixed in hive 0.14.0.
