Are you getting an error or does the partition just not get deleted? If
you get an error message can you share it? What version of Hive are you
using?

Hi,
I am new to hive. I have created one ORC table with partitioning where
my partition looks like below:-
*date=2014-01-01 00%3A00%3A00.0*
*date=2014-01-02 00%3A00%3A00.0*
*date=2014-01-03 00%3A00%3A00.0*
I want to delete my second partition (date=2014-01-02 00%3A00%3A00.0)
but i am not able to do so. I am using the below query:-
* alter table my_tbl drop partition (date='2014-01-0200.00.00.0') ;*
But it is not working. How can i delete it?
