---------------------------------

             Summary: Fully qualified table error when adding partition
                 Key: HIVE-8538
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-8538
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.13.0
         Environment: HDP 2.1
            Reporter: Hari Sekhon
            Priority: Minor


When adding a partition using a fully qualified table name I get the following error, works fine if I use database and then re-issue the query with a non-qualified table name. Other queries such as select do work with fully qualified table names so should make this allow qualified table names for convenience and consistency.

{code}
hive> alter table myDB.myTable add partition (log_date='xxxx-xx-xx');
