[jira] Commented: (HIVE-2016) alter partition should throw
exception if the specified partition does not exist.

Ning Zhang commented on HIVE-2016:
----------------------------------
Currently CLI print out an error message to Session.err. Throwing exception may cause backward compatibility issue. Is this issue mostly related to usage thrown Hive thrift server? if so we need to figure out a way to pass Session.err from HiveServer to client side.
