Incorrect SQL solution

Good Morning. I present my problem to you. I hope that some user can help me.

I took my CCA Data Analyst certification exam (159). In the Score Report I have 3 problems = Incorrect SQL solution

The Cloudera FAQ states that this error is because: An SQL file was found, but it did not generate any output when run. This could include a lack of database references for the tables.

I don't agree with the solution because I ran my script with the command $ hive –f ‘file.sql’ and verified that it generated an output file.

Cloudera doesn't tell me if the results are wrong because the number of records is wrong or the output directory is wrong. The exam is recorded and it can be verified that it generates an output file.

Have a good day

I still think it's a Cloudera mistake.
I am very angry. In my exam I verified that the output file was generated in the directory.
It's recorded, you can check it out.
And now they tell me that nothing is generated.
This is a hoax

Hello there,

 

The follow up was that the Certification Team directly provided the Certification policy on why there is no revision offers after Cloudera certification exams to the user.

 

If you have any certification related inquiries, the best course of action is reaching out to our Certification Team at certification@cloudera.com.

 

Thank you.
