Error while creating table with Glue catalog

RC
Contributor

Hi, 

I have Databricks cluster earlier connected to hive metastore and we have started migrating to Glue catalog.

I'm facing an issue while creating table,

Path must be absolute: <table-name>-__PLACEHOLDER__

We have provided full access to glue and s3 in the respective role.

Below is the configuration which I'm using

spark.databricks.hive.metastore.glueCatalog.enabled true

I can create a hive table without any issue

Is there anything I'm missing here ?

hi @Retired_mod ,

I have added "location" clause as well while defining the table.

But still facing issue, this happens only for delta table.
