Summary: check target directory for `create table` Key: HIVE-11772 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-11772 Project: Hive Issue Type: New Feature Components: Database/Schema Reporter: Phani Rahul Pedduri for managed tables, when they are created, they point to /hive/<table-name> It doesn't check whether or not that location is empty. We find out that when we insert data into that table. Why not throw an error while creating the table itself that the location isn't empty or something like that? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
