[Spark-SQL] Hive support is required to select over the following tables

[Daniel Haviv]

Hi,
I'm using Spark 2.1.0 on Zeppelin.

I can successfully create a table but when I try to select from it I fail:
spark.sql("create table foo (name string)")
res0: org.apache.spark.sql.DataFrame = []

spark.sql("select * from foo")

org.apache.spark.sql.AnalysisException:
Hive support is required to select over the following tables:
`default`.`zibi`
;;
'Project [*]
+- 'SubqueryAlias foo
+- 'SimpleCatalogRelation default, CatalogTable(
Table: `default`.`foo`

Storage(Location: hdfs:/user/spark/warehouse/foo, InputFormat:

This is a change in behavior from 2.0.2, any idea why ?

Thank you,
Daniel
