                 Key: HIVE-2774
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2774
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Query Processor
    Affects Versions: 0.7.1
            Reporter: Jakob Homan
            Assignee: Jakob Homan
             Fix For: 0.9.0
         Attachments: HIVE-2774.patch

Currently when trying to create a view that contains another view (a prohibited 
operation) the exception is:
{noformat}FAILED: Error in semantic analysis: Invalid Table Alias Referencing 
view from foreign databases is not supported.{noformat}
'Twould be better if this message included the view that caused the error so 
that when building views from lots of tables, one doesn't need to hunt to 
figure out which one was the actual view.
