--------------------------------------
Summary: LoadSemanticAnalyzer ignores previous partition location
if inserting into partition that already exists
Key: HIVE-8719
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8719
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Query Processor
Affects Versions: 0.14.0
Reporter: Sushanth Sowmyan
LOAD DATA INSERT INTO seems to be broken currently for partitions that do not
use hive's native directory structure naming scheme, thus ignoring any location
previously set by an ALTER TABLE ADD PARTITION ... LOCATION ... command.
Here is a simple reproducer:
{noformat}
echo 1 > /tmp/data1.txt
hive -e "create external table testpart(id int) partitioned by (date string)
location '/tmp/testpart';"
hive -e "alter table testpart add partition(date='2014-09-16') location
'/tmp/testpart/20140916';"
hive -e "describe formatted testpart partition(date='2014-09-16') ;" | egrep
'/tmp/testpart/(date=.?)?2014-?09-?16' > /tmp/a
hive -e "load data local inpath '/tmp/data1.txt' into table testpart
partition(date='2014-09-16');"
hive -e "describe formatted testpart partition(date='2014-09-16') ;" | egrep
'/tmp/testpart/(date=.?)?2014-?09-?16' > /tmp/b
diff /tmp/a /tmp/b
hadoop fs -ls /tmp/testpart/
{noformat}
