Hi ,

I am new to imapala ,my hive table is having one binary type column ( in which I stored an image ).When I tryto query that table in impala  I am getting the following error " ERROR: AnalysisException: Unsupported type 'BINARY' in 'photo_col'."  But the same query is working in Hive .What mistake I am doing please let me know .

I thought that

 * there is no BINARY data type in impala unlike hive.

If I am correct , then how to query the hive table's binary column in impala ?

Thanks in Advance...
