Symptoms

 On Oracle Big Data Discovery (BDD),

When using data_processing_cli to load data from a Hive table, an error is returned:

./data_processing_CLI -t apache_logs_accepted -d dwhprd
diagnostics: User class threw exception: java.io.IOException: Not a file

Hive table being located in *multiple* subdirectories.

Within Hive, the issue was solved by configuring the below two values (to "true") in hive-site.xml:
- mapred.input.dir.recursive
- hive.mapred.supports.subdirectories

However, the operation still fails within BDD.
