Thejas M Nair commented on HIVE-6440: ------------------------------------- bq. But why is username in brackets – can it really be omitted? No, it can't be omitted. It should not be in brackets. bq. does this also work for "alter schema"? I just checked the code, the existing "ALTER (DATABASE|SCHEMA) database_name SET DBPROPERTIES" as well as this one don't work with "schema" keyword. Created HIVE-6601 to track that. Thanks for bringing up these issues! Please go ahead and update the wiki if you can. > sql std auth - add command to change owner of database > ------------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HIVE-6440 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6440 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Authorization > Reporter: Thejas M Nair > Assignee: Thejas M Nair > Fix For: 0.13.0 > > Attachments: HIVE-6440.1.patch, HIVE-6440.2.patch, HIVE-6440.3.patch > > > It should be possible to change the owner of a database once it is created. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
