> Key: HIVE-22941
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-22941
> Project: Hive
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: László Bodor
> Priority: Major

> There were multiple patches targeting an issue when INSERT OVERWRITE was ineffective if the input is empty:
> HIVE-18702: INSERT OVERWRITE TABLE doesn't clean the table directory before overwriting
> HIVE-21714: Insert overwrite on an acid/mm table is ineffective if the input is empty
> HIVE-21784: Insert overwrite on an acid (not mm) table is ineffective if the input is empty
> From these patches, HIVE-21714 seems to have a bad effect on external tables, because of this part:
> https://github.com/apache/hive/commit/9a10bc28bee5250c0f667c94a295706a44ed4d7e#diff-9bea2581a1fba611f2c10904857b8823R1268
> The original issue before HIVE-21714 was that the original files in the table survived an insert overwrite, and select(*)>0 was after that. HIVE-21714 seems to enable writing empty files regardless of execution engine / table type, which is not the proper way, as the proper solution would be to completely avoid writing empty files for Tez (this is what HIVE-14014 was about). I found that changing condition to...
> {code}
> if (!isTez && (isStreaming || this.isInsertOverwrite))
> {code}
> (which could be an easy solution for external tables) breaks some test cases (both full ACID and MM) in insert_overwrite.q, which could mean they rely somehow on the empty generated file. We need to find a proper solution which is applicable for all table types without polluting external tables.
