Hi All/ @Shu, In my project duplicates are creating while saving the records in some random cases. so, we written few queries as below to remove the duplicates. Step 1: create view db1.temp_no_duplicates as select distinct * from db2.main_table_with_duplicates; creating a temp table on main table and save records in the temp table by applying distinct condition on primary keys and executed this query using hive context. Step 2: insert overwrite table db2.main_table_with_duplicates select * from db1.temp_no_duplicates; Overwriting the main table with records in temp table. While we are executing this we are facing an error : org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException: Cannot overwrite a path that is also being read from.; Is it possible to overwrite like this? Thank You. ... View more
