> When drop a table, there is no need to verify the directory permission. An
> exception should be thrown when the table path deletion fails.
> HIVE-28804 When ranger is not enabled, this method of checking permissions is
> possible. However, there is a situation where the partitions of the partition
> table do not have write permission for the directory. In this case, deletion
> will also fail and files will be left on HDFS.
> When HiveServer2 integrates Ranger for authentication, there will be a bug in
> the permission verification. Ranger has already granted write permissions for
> the database tables and even partitions. However, when attempting to delete a
> table, it still prompts that there is no permission for the database
> directory or the table directory, resulting in the inability to delete the
> table.
> The correct solution is to remove the table without verifying the directory
> write permission, not to catch the exception when deleting the data
> directory, but to throw the exception instead, and at the same time roll back
> the metadata information.
