sqoop import issue with mysql

Question

I have a hadoop ha setup based on cdh5.I have tried to import tables from mysql by using sqoop failed with following error.

15/03/20 12:47:53 ERROR manager.         


        

Answer 1

Find the jar locations that are being used in sqoop, in my case, it is pointing to the link /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar

so when I check the link /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar it points to mysql-connector-java-5.1.17.jar

/usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar -> mysql-connector-java-5.1.17.jar

as 5.1.17 is having this issue, try 5.1.37 or higher.

unlink /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar

ln -s /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java.jar /usr/share/java/mysql-connector-java-5.1.37.jar
