Error Trying to get Basic Pig Syntax Running

djbozentka — Mon, 30 Jan 2017 22:46:36 GMT

Recently installed a Pig instance on Ambari but continually getting IOException errors and commands unknown(dump, a =5, etc...). I've setup my own local cluster running Ubunt14.04LTS with 1 host and 2 slaves. Any ideas on what I can do? I've run the service check and it returned okay. When i ran the grunt shell and tried to execute the same basic commands it came up with the same errors.

I've tried the below commands(separately) and all have issues.

    a = 5;

    dump 5;

    UPPER('test');

I've tried them in the grunt shell and get the same errors(running pig -x local, or -x webHCat)

Could you add the exact errors (copy-paste) as a comment to your question?

Please try to run this smoke test and provide complete command O/p if any error.

@avoma

Thanks for the help, but it is because my commands weren't PigLatin compliant.... Thanks for the help and reply.
