Phabricator updated HIVE-2617:
------------------------------
Attachment: HIVE-2617.D843.1.patch
njain requested code review of "HIVE-2617 [jira] Insert overwrite table
db.tname fails if partition already exists".
Reviewers: JIRA
HIVE-2617
Insert Overwrite table db.tname fails if partition already exists.
For example-
insert overwrite table db.tname PARTITION(part='p') select .. from t2 where
part='p'; fails if partition 'p' already exists. Workaround is - use db; and
the fire the command.
From the source code-
alterPartition(tbl.getTableName(), new Partition(tbl, tpart)); takes String
tablename as argument and loses db information. Table table =
newTable(tablename) is called to retrieve table from name. But, it relies on
currentDatabase value (hence the workaround).
