    Description

      The CREATE LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE statement is actually not supported in Spark SQL. However, when a user queries such a statement, the error message is confusing. For example, the error message for

      CREATE LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE my_table (x INT);
      

      is

      no viable alternative at input 'CREATE LOCAL'(line 1, pos 7)
      

      which is misleading.
       

      One possible way to fix is to explicitly capture these statements in a grammar rule and print user-friendly error message such as

      CREATE LOCAL TEMPORARY TABLE statements are not supported.
