Error description

  • When a Hive table with a string field with length greater than
    65535 characters is selected through Big SQL, the returned
    result is unexpectedly truncated.  By default, Big SQL will
    truncate a string value to 32672 characters; however, the
    returned result is incorrectly truncated to different lengths.
    .
    Sample repro scenario:
    In Hive, create a table with a string column:
    create table test(c1 string);
    Insert or load data into table test where the string column
    has a length of, for example, 131130 characters.
    hive> select length(c1) from test;
    OK
    131130
    Time taken: 0.785 seconds, Fetched: 1 row(s)
    .
    Selecting the same data through Big SQL shows:
    [bigsql@test ~]$ db2 "select length(c1) from test"
    1
    -----------
             58
      1 record(s) selected.
    .
