             Summary: Unicode support for Kudu table names
                 Key: KUDU-2340
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2340
             Project: Kudu
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Jim Halfpenny


It is possible to create a Kudu table containing unicode characters in its in Impala by specifying the kudu.table_name attribute. When trying to select from this table you receive an error that the underlying table does not exist.

The example below shows a table being created successfully, but failing on a select * statement.

{{[jh-kafka-2:21000] > create table test2( a int primary key) stored as kudu TBLPROPERTIES('kudu.table_name' = 'impala::kudutest.😀');}}
{{Query: create table test2( a int primary key) stored as kudu TBLPROPERTIES('kudu.table_name' = 'impala::kudutest.😀')}}
{{WARNINGS: Unpartitioned Kudu tables are inefficient for large data sizes.}}{{Fetched 0 row(s) in 0.64s}}
{{[jh-kafka-2:21000] > select * from test2;}}
{{Query: select * from test2}}
{{Query submitted at: 2018-03-13 08:23:29 (Coordinator: https://jh-kafka-2:25000)}}
{{ERROR: AnalysisException: Failed to load metadata for table: 'test2'}}
{{CAUSED BY: TableLoadingException: Error loading metadata for Kudu table impala::kudutest.????}}
{{CAUSED BY: ImpalaRuntimeException: Error opening Kudu table 'impala::kudutest.????', Kudu error: The table does not exist: table_name: "impala::kudutest.????"}}
