I am using Google BigQuery to store and query data. My query application has been working for a few weeks now. But all of a sudden, without any changes on my side, I am getting an "unexpected error"!
I have logged I to the web query interface to BigQuery, run the same queries, and get the same error message. Not very helpful.
Has Google changed something? Can anyone assist me?
Thanks

"Unexpected error" is always a bug in BigQuery. If you see this, file an issue on the bigquery issue tracker or create a stack overflow question. Be sure to send your job ids (project:job_id) along with what you were doing when you got the error.
In the specific case of the problem hit by the OP:
The _2ch fields were causing a crashing problem in one of the BigQuery backend services. We put in a short-term workaround to make those fields illegal since it was affecting our service stability.
We've fixed the underlying problem, and may relax the check to allow those fields again soon.
