David McGinnis updated HIVE-21820: ---------------------------------- Affects Version/s: 1.2.1 > drop database command flushing other data outside db folder > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-21820 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-21820 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.2.1 > Reporter: Neeraj Maheshwari > Priority: Blocker > > On running the below command to create new database: > *create database abc location /users/hive/warehouse/project_name/;* > here expected is, this command should create a new db folder named abc.db > under project_name directory, but with hive version 1.2.1000.2.6.3.0-235 its > not creating abc.db folder. > > And on running command *drop database abc;* the entire project_name directory > got deleted from HDFS. So here drop command rather than dropping just one db > it deleted whole directory and just retained meta informations in hive > metastore for other dbs present in project_name directory. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005)
