在 hive 外部表中添加分區時失敗

Question

我試圖在 hive cli 中創建一個簡單的外部表，但在創建分區時出現錯誤。 我在谷歌上搜索過，但沒有得到正確的結果。 你能幫忙嗎

hive (sampledb)> create external table externalhive(id int,name varchar(100),age tinyint,city varchar(100),state varchar(100)) partitioned by (year string)
            > row format delimited fields terminated by '/t' stored as textfile location '/user/ah12x/external';                                      
OK

hive (sampledb)> show tables;
OK
externalhive

hive (sampledb)> alter table externalhive add partition (year ='2014')
            > location ('/2012');                                  
FAILED: ParseException line 2:9 extraneous input '(' expecting StringLiteral near '<EOF>'
