Error executing shell command in pig

So I am trying to do something like:

%DECLARE Variable `cat src/documents/item.json`;
Filter BY field = Variable;

But I am getting an error saying:

ERROR org.apache.pig.Main - java.lang.RuntimeException: Error executing shell command: Command exit with exit code of 1

Can someone suggests what's wrong? Thanks!

Most likely "src/documents/item.json" doesn't exist and failing.

Interesting that I fixed https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-5349 just today that would have shown proper error message in addition to the exit code.

With that change, it should print out something like

"cat: src/documents/item.jsonl: No such file or directory"
