Chaoyu Tang commented on HIVE-14181:
------------------------------------

[~szita] Could you re-attach your patch to kick off another round of build to 
see if the previous test failures are related? Usually drop a table/partition 
won't throw out an exception if it fails to delete its underlying directory.

> drop table table_name doen't throw an error if drop table fails.
> I was dropping a table and my trash didn't have enough space to hold the 
> table but the drop table command showed success and the table wasn't deleted. 
> But the hadoop fs -rm -r /hive/xyz.db/table_name/ gave an error "Failed to 
> move to trash" because I didnot have enough space quota in my trash.
