Description

When sentry is enabled, import table fails to copy table contents from staging area into warehouse.

To reproduce:

drop table if exists testtable1;
drop table if exists imported_testtable1;
set hive.exec.dynamic.partition.mode=nonstrict;

create table testtable1(
field1 string,
field2 string,
field3 string,
field4 double,
field5 timestamp,
field6 int)
partitioned by(part1 string, part2 int)
clustered by (field1) into 2 buckets
stored as parquet;

insert into table testtable1 partition(part1, part2) values
("test1", "test1", "2016-01-01", 1.11, "2016-01-01 00:00:00", 1, "part1", 1),
("test2", "test2", "2016-02-02", 2.22, "2016-02-02 01:00:00", 2, "part2", 2),
("test3", "test3", "2016-03-03", 3.33, "2016-03-03 03:00:00", 3, "part3", 3),
("test4", "test4", "2016-04-04", 4.44, "2016-04-04 04:00:00", 4, "part4", 4),
("test5", "test5", "2016-05-05", 5.55, "2016-05-05 05:00:00", 5, "part5", 5);

select * from testtable1;
export table testtable1 to '/user/test/testtable1export';
import table imported_testtable1 from '/user/test/testtable1export';
select * from imported_testtable1;
