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

             Summary: Regression: ALTER TABLE DROP IF EXISTS PARTITION throws a 
SemanticException if Partition is not found
                 Key: HIVE-3576
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3576
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Query Processor
    Affects Versions: 0.9.0
            Reporter: Harsh J


Doing a simple "{{ALTER TABLE testtable DROP IF EXISTS 
PARTITION(dt=NONEXISTENTPARTITION)}}" fails with a SemanticException of the 
10006 kind (INVALID_PARTITION).

This does not respect the {{hive.exec.drop.ignorenonexistent}} condition 
either, since there are no if-check-wraps around this area, when fetching 
partitions from the store.
