-----------------------------------
[~jcamachorodriguez], can you review?
> "CREATE VIEW IF NOT EXISTS" fails if view already exists
> --------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: HIVE-20462
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-20462
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 3.1.0
> Environment: HDP 3.0
> Hive 3.1.0.3.0.0.0-1634
> Reporter: static-max
> Assignee: Daniel Dai
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: HIVE-20462.1.patch

>
> After upgrading to Hive 3.1 from Hive 1.2, I can't run my queries anymore. It
> seems that "if not exists" is ignored in "create view".
> *Example:*
> # create view if not exists test as select 1;
> # create view if not exists test as select 1;
> The second call fails with "Table already exists: default.test". I changed
> this to "create or replace view" as a workaround.
> Also documented [link
> here|https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/214772/hdp-3-hive-create-view-if-not-exists-fails.html|]
