Summary: Metastore should throw exception back if it is not able to delete the folder Key: HIVE-21331 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21331 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Metastore Reporter: Rajesh Balamohan [https://github.com/apache/hive/blob/master/standalone-metastore/metastore-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hive/metastore/HiveMetaStore.java#L2678] In one of the cases, table got deleted from HMS, but the data was not deleted. On looking at the issue, `deleteDir` is not throwing the exception back. Real exception gets logged (in this case it was user quota limit exceeeded exception), but the managed table gets dropped without deleting the data. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
