          Components: Metastore
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Anbu Cheeralan


MSKC REPAIR TABLE statement throws null pointer exception in Hive 2.1
I have tested the same against external/internal tables created both in HDFS 
and in Google Cloud.

The error shown in beeline/sql client 
"FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask"

Hive Logs:

2016-09-14T04:08:02,433 ERROR [main]: metadata.HiveMetaStoreChecker (:()) - 
java.lang.NullPointerException
2016-09-14T04:08:02,434 WARN  [main]: exec.DDLTask (:()) - Failed to run

Here are the steps to recreate this issue:
use default
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS repairtable
CREATE TABLE repairtable(col STRING) PARTITIONED BY (p1 STRING, p2 STRING)
MSCK REPAIR TABLE default.repairtable
