----------------------------------

             Summary: Drill requires that dfs.tmp be set up a start time, even 
if CTTAS not used
                 Key: DRILL-5255
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-5255
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.10
            Reporter: Paul Rogers
            Assignee: Arina Ielchiieva
             Fix For: 1.10


Drill can operate in embedded mode. In this mode, no storage plugin definitions 
other than the defaults may be present. In particular, when using the Drill 
test framework, only those storage plugins defined in the Drill code are 
available.

Yet, Drill checks for the existence of the dfs.tmp plugin definition (as named 
by the {{drill.exec.default_temporary_workspace}} parameter. Because this 
plugin is not defined, an exception occurs:

{code}
org.apache.drill.common.exceptions.UserException: PARSE ERROR: Unable to create 
or drop tables/views. Schema [dfs.tmp] is immutable.

        ...
{code}

Expected that either a configuration would exist that would use the default 
/tmp/drill location, or that the check for {{drill.tmp}} would be deferred 
until it is actually required (such as when executing a CTTAS statement.)

As it is, the test framework must be altered to work around this problem by 
defining the necessary properties. But, users of the embedded Drillbit may not 
know to do this configuration.
