--------------------------------------
Summary: hcat -e "drop database if exists" fails on authorizing
non-existent null db
Key: HIVE-5496
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-5496
Project: Hive
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Authorization, HCatalog
Reporter: Sushanth Sowmyan
Assignee: Sushanth Sowmyan
When running a "drop database if exists" call on hcat commandline, it fails
authorization with a NPE because it tries to authorize access to a null
database. This should be changed to not call authorize if the db for the
DropDatabaseDesc is null.
