bug with describe and reserved keyword
--------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-2949
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2949
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.7.1
Reporter: Fabian Alenius
Priority: Minor
Hi,
there seems to an issue with the describe statement and using reserved keywords
for tablenames.
Specifically, describe does not seem to work on a table called 'user' even
though it's escaped in the query.
So this works:
show partitions `user`;
But this does not work:
describe `user`;
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask
