> Alter table recover partitions fails to detect changes in parent path
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: IMPALA-3796
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-3796
>             Project: IMPALA
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Catalog
>    Affects Versions: Impala 2.3.0
>            Reporter: Peter Ebert
>            Priority: Minor
>              Labels: ramp-up, usability
>
> If you have a table located at /db/table
> with partitions /db/table/partition=1
> and then move the table location to /db2/table/ along with the partitions and 
> their data
> the location of the partitions will be incorrect when you list them, still 
> pointing to /db/table/partition=1
> running a "Alter table recover partitions" seems to check only for the 
> existence of partition=1 in the +current+ table location, and ignores that 
> the prior path has changed. So when you run a query it will not find those 
> partitions and report 0 rows.
> it should be noted that hive has the same behavior.
