Hi All,

I was trying to drop a database name "default" but every time it fails with
the below error message. While other commands works fine like " show
database"


hive> DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS default;
FAILED: Execution Error, return code 1 from
org.apache.hadoop.hive.ql.exec.DDLTask. MetaException(message:Can not drop
default database)
hive>


Thanks
Biswajit
