Description
When running spark in local environment (for unit-testing purpose) and without providing any `hive-site.xml, databases apart from the default one are created in Hive default hive.metastore.warehouse.dir and not in the current directory (as stated in [Spark docs](http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-programming-guide.html#hive-tables)). This code snippet, tested with Spark 1.3.1 demonstrates the issue: https://github.com/tmnd1991/spark-hive-bug/blob/master/src/main/scala/Main.scala You cane see that the exception is thrown when executing the CREATE DATABASE STATEMENT, stating that is `Unable to create database path file:/user/hive/warehouse/abc.db, failed to create database abc)` where is `/user/hive/warehouse/abc.db`is not the current directory as stated in the docs.
