1 user1 has read permission on hdfs path '/user/www/seller_shop_info';
2 user1 create external table seller_shop_info on the hdfs path;
3 user1 drop the exernal table seller_shop_info
then problem occurred!
hive> drop table seller_shop_info;
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask. MetaException(message:Table metadata

because when dropping external table,hive doesnot delete hdfs path,so hive
metastore should not check the hdfs write permission
