Throw an error when a nonexistent partition is accessed in strict mode ----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HIVE-2870 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-2870 Project: Hive Issue Type: Improvement Components: Query Processor Reporter: Lucian Adrian Grijincu Priority: Minor When a table does not exist and someone tries to read from it in a query, Hive throws an error. But if a partition is directly accessed that does not exist, an error is not thrown. This is inconsistent and also leads to a lot of confused users who get no output. This task is to cause Hive to throw an error when the partition pruner for a query eliminates ALL existing partitions for some table when running in strict mode. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
