MySQL is Hive metastore_db. I follow this guide > to configurate it > (http://www.cloudera.com/content/cloudera-content/cloudera-docs/CDH4/4.2.0/CDH4-Installation-Guide/cdh4ig_topic_18_4.html). > It is ok for me to do drop table command under hive shell environment. But > when I enter into spark-shell env, I use hiveContext.hql("DROP TABLE IF > EXISTS hivetesting"). And then, I get following error: > ERROR Hive: NoSuchObjectException(message:default.hivetesting table not found) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.api.ThriftHiveMetastore$get_table_result$get_table_resultStandardScheme.read(ThriftHiveMetastore.java:27129) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.api.ThriftHiveMetastore$get_table_result$get_table_resultStandardScheme.read(ThriftHiveMetastore.java:27097) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.api.ThriftHiveMetastore$get_table_result.read(ThriftHiveMetastore.java:27028) > at org.apache.thrift.TServiceClient.receiveBase(TServiceClient.java:78) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.api.ThriftHiveMetastore$Client.recv_get_table(ThriftHiveMetastore.java:936) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.api.ThriftHiveMetastore$Client.get_table(ThriftHiveMetastore.java:922) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.HiveMetaStoreClient.getTable(HiveMetaStoreClient.java:854) > at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) > at > sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(NativeMethodAccessorImpl.java:57) > at > sun.reflect.DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.invoke(DelegatingMethodAccessorImpl.java:43) > at java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:606) > at > org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.RetryingMetaStoreClient.invoke(RetryingMetaStoreClient.java:89) > at com.sun.proxy.$Proxy11.getTable(Unknown Source) > at org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.metadata.Hive.getTable(Hive.java:950) > ...... > I think when running under hive shell, it mutes this error. But under spark > shell, hive doesn't mute this error and throw out error directly. So If the > table doesn't exist, hive should not throw out error; it should throw out > warning. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
