> Hi,
> there seems to an issue with the describe statement and using reserved
> keywords for tablenames.
> Specifically, describe does not seem to work on a table called 'user' even
> though it's escaped in the query.
> So this works:
> show partitions `user`;
> But this does not work:
> describe `user`;
> FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from
> org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask
