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

             Summary: exported metadata by HIVE-3608 cannot be imported because 
of wrong file name
                 Key: HIVE-4299
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-4299
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Query Processor
    Affects Versions: 0.11.0
            Reporter: Sho Shimauchi


h2. Symptom

When DROP TABLE a table, metadata of the table is generated to be able to 
import the dropped table again.
However, the exported metadata name is '<table name>.metadata'.
Since ImportSemanticAnalyzer allows only '_metadata' as metadata filename, user 
have to rename the metadata file to import the table.


h2. How to reproduce

Set the following setting to hive-site.xml:

{code}
 <property>
   <name>hive.metastore.pre.event.listeners</name>
   <value>org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.parse.MetaDataExportListener</value>
 </property>
{code}

Then run the following queries:

{code}
> CREATE TABLE test_table (id INT, name STRING);
> DROP TABLE test_table;
> IMPORT TABLE test_table_imported FROM '/path/to/metadata/file';
FAILED: SemanticException [Error 10027]: Invalid path
{code}
