    Description

      When Exporting hive tables using the hive command in Hive 0.9 "EXPORT table TO 'hdfs_path'" then importing to another hive 0.10 instance using "IMPORT FROM 'hdfs_path'", hive throws this error:

      This is probably a critical blocker for people who are trying to test Hive 0.10 in their staging environments prior to the upgrade from 0.9
