I'm guessing you've got default_tablespace set to something nonempty.
I don't know why the decision was made to throw an error rather than silently ignoring the setting ...
Ignoring the setting seems to be what the documentation says we do:
"For partitioned tables, since no storage is required for the table itself, the tablespace specified overrides default_tablespace as the default tablespace to use for any newly created partitions when no other tablespace is explicitly specified."
