it seems that you are hitting https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-12349

can you try to run your query after setting hive.optimize.index.filter=false

Hi I too face this issue(with tez and mr engines) now for below italized query - query to fetch a set of records from a view and insert into a table.

HDP Version : (2.3.2.0-2950) version in both dev and prod.

Hive Version : Hive 1.2.1.2.3.2.48-5

Same query worked for a week in production and 1st time i face this issue. is it due to incorrect data in Date Column?

insert overwrite table crhs_fmtrade_transient_break partition(transient_break_reporting_date, source_system)

select break_id, trade_id, reporting_date, break_type, first_seen_date, processed_date,transientbreakcloseddate, closuretype,transientbreakindicator, transientbreaktype, breakfinalsysteminvststatus, transientbreakprocesseddate, commentarysysteminvestigationstatus, transientbreakreportingdate, source_system from v_fmtrade_mxg_transient_break;
