Markon created IMPALA-6496: ------------------------------ Summary: Impala Show Partitions is listing dropped partitions Key: IMPALA-6496 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-6496 Project: IMPALA Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: Impala 2.6.0 Reporter: Markon
An external table had one of its partitions dropped on Hive. When SHOW PARTITIONS elevationP; is run on Hive, the updated list of partitions is displayed. However on Impala, even after : REFRESH elevationP; and INVALIDATE METADATA elevationP; when SHOW PARTITIONS elevationP; is run, the dropped partition is still being displayed. Dropping it the same way on Impala using: ALTER TABLE elevationP DROP PARTITION(degrees='60'); didn't work either and showed: ERROR: AnalysisException: Partition spec does not exist: (degrees='60'). I saw similar unresolved issues that went unanswered, does anybody know how to get Impala to correctly update the metadata and refresh the partition list? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
