---------------------------------------

             Summary: Issue with database name case sensitivity
                 Key: CARBONDATA-629
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CARBONDATA-629
             Project: CarbonData
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.2.0-incubating, 0.1.0-incubating
         Environment: Linux systems
            Reporter: Manish Gupta
            Assignee: Manish Gupta
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 1.0.0-incubating


When database name is provided in any DDL/DML command, the database name is interpreted and used in the same case as provided by the user. This leads to different behavior in windows and unix systems as windows is case sensitive and linux systems are case insensitive.
Consider a case for create database. Lets say database name is "Carbon". While executing database name is provided as Carbon but while deleting or using or creating table the case is changed to "CARbOn". In these cases system will not behave correctly and if HDFS UI is checked the database Carbon will still exist even after dropping database as the case for database name was different in the 2 commands execution.
