获得；无法从空字符串创建路径"；使用HCatalog JSON SerDe时出错

我正在尝试使用hcatalogjson Serde（来自HCatalog-core-0.5.0-cdh4.7.0.jar）使用一个配置单元表。我运行的是CDH4（Hadoop 2.0.0-CDH4.7.0和Hive 0.10.0-CDH4.7.0）

表定义：

CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE some_table(
  user_id int COMMENT 'from deserializer',
  event_time int COMMENT 'from deserializer',
  some_string string COMMENT 'from deserializer',
  some_id string COMMENT 'from deserializer',
  another_id int COMMENT 'from deserializer')
PARTITIONED BY (
  year int,
  month int,
  day int)
ROW FORMAT SERDE
  'org.apache.hcatalog.data.JsonSerDe'
STORED AS INPUTFORMAT
  'org.apache.hadoop.mapred.TextInputFormat'
OUTPUTFORMAT
  'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.HiveIgnoreKeyTextOutputFormat'
LOCATION
  'hdfs://localhost:8020/somedir/some_table'
TBLPROPERTIES (
  'last_modified_by'='volker',
  'last_modified_time'='1424980336',
  'transient_lastDdlTime'='1424980952')

创建的分区如下所示：

alter table some_table add if not exists partition (year=2015,month=02,day=26) location '/somedir/some_table/year=2015/month=02/day=26'

第一步进行得很顺利，我可以在选择所有列时读取数据：

hive> select * from some_table limit 10;
OK
671764813   1424980760  fbx NtiwgY  6   2015    02  26
1632511524  1424980760  fbx AdMybO  10  2015    02  26
1201817175  1424980760  fbx GgQJEd  6   2015    02  26
1621940110  1424980760  fbx qmsXNQ  12  2015    02  26
326380277   1424980760  fbx zgVFgP  2   2015    02  26
1256744282  1424980760  fbx GeIFxq  6   2015    02  26
1741961976  1424980760  fbx CiuxZU  8   2015    02  26
2009923690  1424980760  fbx ZmGOvK  2   2015    02  26
1728798342  1424980760  fbx YikDcV  8   2015    02  26
688185292   1424980760  fbx NssSWN  7   2015    02  26

但是，当我尝试在查询失败的任何位置读取或引用特定字段时：

hive> select another_id from some_table limit 10;

我希望这只是我的表定义的问题。欢迎任何帮助。

我没有将此用于HCatalog SerDe，但是，我想要的是将JSON存储在HDFS中，并将其作为配置单元表读取，通过使用不同的SerDe，我最终成功地做到了这一点，您可以在这里找到：

在CDH4上对我来说效果非常好
