------------------------------------
Summary: DROP TABLE PURGE on S3A table with too many files does
not delete the files
Key: HIVE-13778
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-13778
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Metastore
Reporter: Sailesh Mukil
Priority: Critical
I've noticed that when we do a DROP TABLE tablename PURGE on a table on S3A
that has many files, the files never get deleted. However, the Hive metastore
logs do say that the path was deleted:
"Not moving [path] to trash"
"Deleted the diretory [path]"
I initially thought that this was due to the eventually consistent nature of
S3, however, a week later, the files still exist.
