Sqoop Failed to list columns from query

I executed this simple command from sqoop against mysql database (4.1.22-standard-log)

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://test.ddc:3306/test --table "foo" --username test --password bar --hive-table test.foo --as-avrodatafile --target-dir /user/admin/foo

I have copied mysql-connector-java-5.1.31-bin.jar to /opt/cloudera/parcels/CDH-5.4.1-1.cdh5.4.1.p0.6/lib/sqoop/lib/

I got this error

16/03/08 21:55:56 ERROR manager.CatalogQueryManager: Failed to list columns from query: SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS WHERE TABLE_SCHEMA = (SELECT SCHEMA())   AND TABLE_NAME = 'foo'

I was able to solve this. The driver parameter was missing above and that was causing the issue. the command below worked

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://test.ddc:3306/test --table "foo" --driver 
com.mysql.jdbc.Driver --username test --password bar --hive-table test.foo --
as-avrodatafile --target-dir /user/admin/foo
