Hello,

I successfully imported one Excel-file but cannot run “SELECT count(\*)” on it.  
I am getting the following error :

SCHEMA\_CHANGE ERROR: New schema found and recorded. Please reattempt the query. Multiple attempts may be necessary to fully learn the schema.

In job profile I see that Dremio found to schemas with the only differens in field  
schema element “\_dremio\__update_$::int64”.

Original Schema schema(Auftraggeber::varchar, … Bestelldat::timestamp, \_dremio\__update_$::int64)  
New Schema schema(Auftraggeber::varchar, Bestelldat::timestamp)

I cannot figure out where comes this “\_dremio\__update_$” field in the schema from  
and how to fix the problem).

@ennpet, try running the following query on the dataset:  
`ALTER PDS <your dataset here> REFRESH METADATA`

Also, can you attach the job profile?

Hello Ben,

REFRESH METADATA seems not to help.  
Still the same error.

@ennpet,

1. Is it possible for you to share that excel file?
2. Have you tried removing the formatting for this dataset and then re-applying it?

@ben  
I added this file over import button and therefor cannot remove format.  
I reduced the file to only one datarow and the error persists.  
This file I can share:

@ben  
actually, looks like the problem is only with “SELECT COUNT(\*) FROM”.  
“SELECT \* FROM”. works.
