title: How to use sqlContext to load multiple parquet files?
body: <p>I'm trying to load a directory of parquet files in spark but can't seem to get it to work...this seems to work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>val df = sqlContext.load("hdfs://nameservice1/data/rtl/events/stream/loaddate=20151102")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but this doesn't work:</p>
  
  <pre><code>val df = sqlContext.load("hdfs://nameservice1/data/rtl/events/stream/loaddate=201511*")
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>it gives me back this error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>java.io.FileNotFoundException: File does not exist: hdfs://nameservice1/data/rtl/events/stream/loaddate=201511*
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>how do i get it to work with a wild card?</p>
