-------------------------------
Summary: When dropping external tables, Hive should not verify
whether user has access to the data.
Key: HIVE-9020
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-9020
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Anant Nag
When dropping tables, hive verifies whether the user has access to the data on
hdfs. It fails, if user doesn't have access. It makes sense for internal tables
since the data has to be deleted when dropping internal tables but for external
tables, Hive should not check for data access.
