Reynold Xin updated SPARK-17992:
--------------------------------
Issue Type: Sub-task (was: Bug)
Parent: SPARK-17861
> HiveClient.getPartitionsByFilter throws an exception for some unsupported
> filters when hive.metastore.try.direct.sql=false
> --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-17992
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17992
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: SQL
> Reporter: Michael Allman
>
> We recently added (and enabled by default) table partition pruning for
> partitioned Hive tables converted to using {{TableFileCatalog}}. When the
> Hive configuration option {{hive.metastore.try.direct.sql}} is set to
> {{false}}, Hive will throw an exception for unsupported filter expressions.
> For example, attempting to filter on an integer partition column will throw a
> {{org.apache.hadoop.hive.metastore.api.MetaException}}.
> I discovered this behavior because VideoAmp uses the CDH version of Hive with
> a Postgresql metastore DB. In this configuration, CDH sets
> {{hive.metastore.try.direct.sql}} to {{false}} by default, and queries that
> filter on a non-string partition column will fail. That would be a rather
> rude surprise for these Spark 2.1 users...
> I'm not sure exactly what behavior we should expect, but I suggest that
> {{HiveClientImpl.getPartitionsByFilter}} catch this metastore exception and
> return all partitions instead. This is what Spark does for Hive 0.12 users,
> which does not support this feature at all.
