Hi Michael, Ted, https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/branch-1.5/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/datasources/jdbc/JdbcUtils.scala#L48
In Present spark version in line 48 there is a bug, to check whether table exists in a database using limit doesnt work for all databases sql server for example. best way to check whehter table exists in any database is to use, select * from table where 1=2; or select 1 from table where 1=2; this supports all the databases. In spark 1.6 can this change be implemented, this lets write.mode("append") bug to go away. def tableExists(conn: Connection, table: String): Boolean = { // Somewhat hacky, but there isn't a good way to identify whether a table exists for all // SQL database systems, considering "table" could also include the database name. Try(conn.prepareStatement(s"SELECT 1 FROM $table LIMIT 1" ).executeQuery().next()).isSuccess } Solution:- def tableExists(conn: Connection, table: String): Boolean = { // Somewhat hacky, but there isn't a good way to identify whether a table exists for all // SQL database systems, considering "table" could also include the database name. Try(conn.prepareStatement(s"SELECT 1 FROM $table where 1=2" ).executeQuery().next()).isSuccess } Thanks Sri On Wed, Dec 9, 2015 at 10:30 PM, Michael Armbrust <mich...@databricks.com> wrote: > The release date is "as soon as possible".
