[jira] [Updated] (HIVE-5754) NullPointerException when alter partition table and table does not exist

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5754?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Alexis Deltour updated HIVE-5754:
---------------------------------

    Description: 
I have a problem with my oozie hive action which clean my hive table, and when my table doesn't exist and i alter partition table, i obtain different messages with 2 versions of hive :

Sur CDH3 hive 0.7.1 :
hive> ALTER TABLE mytable DROP IF EXISTS PARTITION (mypart='10');
FAILED: Error in semantic analysis: Table not found mytable  
--> Oozie action OK.

Sur CDH4 hive 0.10.0 :
hive> ALTER TABLE mytable DROP IF EXISTS PARTITION (mypart='10');
FAILED: NullPointerException null  
--> Oozie action in error.

Is this a bug or a configuration problem ?
