Problem Note 64592: "ERROR: The SQL statement contains a UDF that is not being passed to the database" occurs with Hadoop queries that contain user-defined functions
 |  |  |  |  |
An error similar to the following might occur when you run a CREATE TABLE AS SELECT statement against Hadoop and the query contains a user-defined function (UDF):
ERROR: The original SQL statement contains a UDF that is not being passed down to the database. SQL execution is stopped.
This is an example of a query that generates the error:
option DBIDIRECTEXEC;
Proc sql;
create table HDPLIB.somecars as
select substr(model,1,length(model)-MYUDF(model,"a")) as model1 from HDPLIB.cars ;
Proc sql;
create table HDPLIB.somecars as
select substr(model,1,length(model)-MYUDF(model,"a")) as model1 from HDPLIB.cars ;
You can work around this error by setting the NODBIDIRECTEXEC option.
