Wenchen Fan updated SPARK-17234:
--------------------------------
Assignee: Xiao Li
> Table Existence Checking when Index Table with the Same Name Exists
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-17234
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-17234
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SQL
> Affects Versions: 2.1.0
> Reporter: Xiao Li
> Assignee: Xiao Li
>
> Hive Index tables are not supported by Spark SQL. Thus, we issue an exception
> when users try to access Hive Index tables. When the internal function
> `tableExists` tries to access Hive Index tables, it always gets the same
> error message: ```Hive index table is not supported```. This message could be
> confusing to users, since their SQL operations could be completely unrelated
> to Hive Index tables. For example, when users try to alter a table to a new
> name and there exists an index table with the same name, the expected
> exception should be a `TableAlreadyExistsException`.
