Sergio Peña commented on HIVE-13243:
------------------------------------
In {{encryption_drop_partition.q}}, I see you're dropping the external table
with purge:
{noformat}
+DROP TABLE encrypted_ext_table_dp;
+
+SELECT * FROM encrypted_table_dp;
ALTER TABLE encrypted_table_dp DROP PARTITION (p='2014-09-23');
SELECT * FROM encrypted_table_dp;
ALTER TABLE encrypted_table_dp DROP PARTITION (p='2014-09-23') PURGE;
SELECT * FROM encrypted_table_dp;
+DROP TABLE encrypted_ext_table_dp PURGE;
{noformat}
Didn't you mean to drop {{encrypted_table_dp}} instead?

> When dropping an external table with its data located in an encryption zone,
> hive should not throw out MetaException(message:Unable to drop table because
> it is in an encryption zone and trash is enabled. Use PURGE option to skip
> trash.) in checkTrashPurgeCombination since the data should not get deleted
> (or trashed) anyway regardless HDFS Trash is enabled or not.
