---------------------------------------
cc [~dongjoon] cc [~cloud_fan]
I observed above behavior, Need inputs from experts, just to know whether its
an intentional behavioral change compare to other systems like impala/hive, or
its an improvement/bug which we can handle in running version.
> Not able to specify LOCATION for internal table

> Key: SPARK-27617
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27617
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.2.0, 2.3.0, 2.4.0, 3.0.0
> Reporter: Sujith Chacko
> Priority: Major
>
> In spark whenever user specifies location uri in create table without
> external keyword the table is treated as external table .
> Because of this behavior following following problems has been observed
> a) user will not able to set an external location for a managed table.
> b) compatibility issue with hive/impala where the system allow managed table
> to specify location uri if user created table without 'EXTERNAL' keyword.
>
> scala> spark.sql("""CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS ext2 (name STRING) LOCATION
> 'D:/spark-2.4.1-bin-hadoop2.7/bin/spark-warehouse/abc_orc13'""");
> -chgrp: 'HTIPL-23270\None' does not match expected pattern for group
> Usage: hadoop fs [generic options] -chgrp [-R] GROUP PATH...
> res15: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = []
> scala> spark.sql("desc formatted ext2").show(false)
