Alexander Kolbasov created HIVE-19337: -----------------------------------------
Summary: Partition whitelist regex doesn't work (and never did) Key: HIVE-19337 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-19337 Project: Hive Issue Type: Bug Components: Metastore Affects Versions: 2.3.3 Reporter: Alexander Kolbasov Assignee: Alexander Kolbasov {{ObjectStore.setConf()}} has the following code: {code:java} String partitionValidationRegex = hiveConf.get(HiveConf.ConfVars.METASTORE_PARTITION_NAME_WHITELIST_PATTERN.name()); {code} Note that it uses {{name()}}method which returns enum name ({{METASTORE_PARTITION_NAME_WHITELIST_PATTERN}}) rather then {.varname} As a result the regex will always be null. The code was introduced as part of HIVE-7223 Support generic PartitionSpecs in Metastore partition-functions So looks like this was broken since the original code drop. This is fixed in Hive3 - probably when [~alangates] reworked access to configuration (HIVE-17733) so it isn't a bug in Hive-3.
