----------------------------------------------

             Summary: CURRENT_TIMESTAMP returns value in UTC time zone
                 Key: HIVE-21039
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21039
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.1.1
            Reporter: Andrey Zinovyev
            Assignee: Jesus Camacho Rodriguez


We're upgrading from hive 1.2 to 3.1 and it seems like new hive returns 
CURRENT_TIMESTAMP in UTC timezone. But before it was in local (system's 
default) timezone.

According to HIVE-5472 current_timestamp should use user's local timezone. This 
behaviour was changed in HIVE-12192  (if I got it right). 
GenericUDFCurrentTimestamp now explicitly uses UTC as timezone to initialise 
org.apache.hadoop.hive.common.type.Timestamp .

For example
Old hive:
{code}
hive> select current_timestamp;
OK
2018-12-12 22:43:39.024
{code}

New hive:
{code}
> select current_timestamp;
+--------------------------+
|           _c0            |
+--------------------------+
| 2018-12-12 19:43:57.024  |
+--------------------------+
{code}
