I execute query to create Hive table below:
CREATE TABLE db1.test_create_tbl( column1 smallint COMMENT 'desc of column')
COMMENT 'desc of table'
ROW FORMAT SERDE
'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.OpenCSVSerde'
STORED AS TEXTFILE
I execute query to display table schema below:
DESCRIBE db1.test_create_tbl
But when i get table schema, column description always display "from deserializer"
Please touch me, thanks

I have come across same issue. I have changed the hive configuration and it worked fine.
set the below parameter in hive shell.
set hive.serdes.using.metastore.for.schema=org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.OpenCSVSerde;
