I'm using Java-Spark. I have the following table in Dataset object: <code> creationDate 15/06/2018 09:15:28 I make select to this column <code>Dataset<Row> ds = dataframe.select(new Column("creationDate").as("mydate").cast("date")); And I write it with: <code>ds.write().mode(mode).save(hdfsDirectory); Try also: <code>ds.write().option("dateFormat","dd/MM/yyyy HH:mm:ss").mode(mode).save(hdfsDirectory); But When I'm looking on my table the column mydate is null. How can I write my date into my Hive table? I know the default date format should be dd-MM-yyyy but my text is with dd/MM/yyyy format and I can't change it. Any suggestions? Thanks. ... View more
