             Summary: Cannot modify Avro table properties if existing 
properties are invalid
                 Key: HIVE-10206
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-10206
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: File Formats
    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
            Reporter: Szehon Ho


Create an avro table with an external avsc file like:

{noformat}
CREATE  TABLE test(...)
ROW FORMAT SERDE 
  'org.apache.hadoop.hive.serde2.avro.AvroSerDe' 
STORED AS INPUTFORMAT 
  'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerInputFormat' 
OUTPUTFORMAT 
  'org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.io.avro.AvroContainerOutputFormat'
TBLPROPERTIES (
  'avro.schema.url'='file:///Users/szehon/Temp/test.avsc', 
  'kite.compression.type'='snappy', 
  'transient_lastDdlTime'='1427996456')
{noformat}

Delete test.avsc file.

Try to modify the table properties:

{noformat}
alter table test set tblproperties 
('avro.schema.url'='file:///Users/szehon/Temp/test2.avsc');
{noformat}

Will throw an exception like AvroSerdeException:
