-------------------------------------------
Summary: Drop table if exists throws authorization exception when
table does not exist
Key: IMPALA-8851
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-8851
Project: IMPALA
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Vihang Karajgaonkar
Assignee: Vihang Karajgaonkar
When authorization is enabled, a {{drop table if exists <tablename>}} on a
non-existing table throws an authorization exception. In such a case if the
user has required permissions to the query the tables on the database, this is
unnecessary and the SQL should succeed saying the table does not exists instead
of erroring out.
