drop table (or view) should issue warning if table doesn't exist ----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-1763 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1763 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Metastore Reporter: dan f Priority: Minor drop table reports "OK" even if the table doesn't exist. Better to report something like mysql's "Unknown table 'foo'" so that, e.g., unwanted tables (especially ones with names prone to typos) don't persist. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
