title: Error while inserting data into a HIVE table
body: <p>I am trying to insert some data from a 'tab delimited file' into a HIVE table which has been created already. I have created 4 basic columns in the HIVE table named 'users'. I am using the following command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>load data local inpath 'D:\users.txt'
  into table users;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I get the following error message after running the above command:</p>
  
  <pre><code>FAILED: SemanticException [Error 10028]: Line 1:23 Path is not legal ''D:\users.txt'': Source file system should be "file" if "local" is specified
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am using Windows 7 and running HIVE on Amazon Web Services via PUTTY.
  Any help would be greatly appreciated.</p>
  
  <p>TIA</p>
