Hello Team,

I am unable to run the import command for Hive, since it is failing with error invalid path.
I copied the table content to another folder and it has permission for hive user, but while running import command it says invalid path. i ran import command on the path where the source table location still it fails with same reason.

Beeline version 3.1.3000.7.1.8.28-1 by Apache Hive

@jayes  Instead of copying the data using hdfs copy command, could you try EXPORT TABLE?

e.g.

EXPORT TABLE test1 to '/jay123/restore_jobid123243/jayesh/'

Then run your IMPORT command.

use jayesh; import table test1 from '/jay123/restore_jobid123243/jayesh/'

Import table command requires metadata along with table data which gets dumped only when you use EXPORT command.
