Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-15257:
------------------------------------
Assignee: Andrew Or (was: Apache Spark)
> Require CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE to specify LOCATION
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-15257
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-15257
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.0.0
> Reporter: Andrew Or
> Assignee: Andrew Or
>
> Right now when the user runs `CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE` without specifying
> `LOCATION`, the table will still be created in the warehouse directory, but
> its metadata won't be deleted even when the user drops the table! This is a
> problem. We should use require the user to also specify `LOCATION`.
> Note: This doesn't not apply to `CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE ... USING`, which is
> not yet supported.
