Arup Malakar created HIVE-3620: ---------------------------------- Summary: Drop table using hive CLI throws error when the total number of partition in the table is around 50K. Key: HIVE-3620 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-3620 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Arup Malakar
hive> drop table load_test_table_20000_0; FAILED: Error in metadata: org.apache.thrift.transport.TTransportException: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: Read timedout FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask The DB used is Oracle and hive had only one table: select COUNT(*) from PARTITIONS; 54839 I can try and play around with the parameter hive.metastore.client.socket.timeout if that is what is being used. But it is 200 seconds as of now, and 200 seconds for a drop table calls seems high already. Thanks, Arup -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
