sqoop job not running with parameters

I am trying to run a sqoop job .I am using sqoop version Sqoop 1.4.6-cdh5.8.0 and it is not working for this version

It is working fine with Sqoop 1.4.5-cdh5.4.0.

 sqoop job --create E8 -- import  --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost/test -- username root --password cloudera --table NAME --hive-import -m1

 sqoop job --exec E8 -- --table dummy1

Is there any syntax issue.If anyone can help with this.

       imports  will fail.
       Please set $ACCUMULO_HOME to the root of your Accumulo installation.

This seems to be a bug in sqoop-1.4.6-cdh5.8.0 and sqoop-1.4.6-cdh5.9.0

This, however, as you mentioned is working correctly with 1.4.5 version.

The below solution worked for me:

1) Download 'sqoop-1.4.5-cdh5.4.0.jar' from http://repo.spring.io/libs-release/org/apache/sqoop/sqoop/1.4.5-cdh5.4.0/

2) Replace 'sqoop-1.4.6-cdh5.8.0.jar' with 'sqoop-1.4.5-cdh5.4.0.jar' and modify the symbolic link 'sqoop.jar' to point to 'sqoop-1.4.5-cdh5.4.0.jar'

3) Though I don't support downgrading, but still this works as charm.

Assuming you already did the basic checks (like manually placing the parameter in the job, and executing it) I would say the syntax looks to be correct.

When looking at the doc it is mentioned that one can override properties. Unfortunately, they only show an example that adds a property, and don't show overriding one.

A search led me to this open issue which leads me to believe that there is a bug that prevents you from overriding parameters properly.


Unfortunately I don't see a solution for this, some things that might help to work around the problem:

  • Parameterize on a different level
  • Play with the syntax (does it help if it is the first/last override element, what if you try to override AND add a user, what if you try to override the query parameter instead of the table parameter ...)
