             Summary: With External Tables Sentry does not handle alter table rename correctly
                 Key: SENTRY-2341
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SENTRY-2341
             Project: Sentry
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Sentry
    Affects Versions: 2.1.0
            Reporter: Arjun Mishra
            Assignee: Arjun Mishra


For external tables, running ALTER TABLE RENAME will not change the location of that table, but will drop the ACL.
Sentry drops privileges every time we delete an object, or rename an object. In case of rename Sentry drops the privilege from old object and adds to new one
However with external tables, on renaming the table no new location is created. So even though Sentry has in its SENTRY_PATH_CHANGE the ACL for this new location, it never gets applied because it doesn't actually exist
