Answer 1

Try using the below modified command, which can suit your purpose

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://<mysql hostname>:3306/haddata --driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver --username root --password password --table authors --hive-import

Answer 2

follow this link

Include the driver argument --driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver in sqoop command.

sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://<mysql hostname>:3306/<db name> --username **** --password **** --table <table name> --hive-import --driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

The --driver parameter forces sqoop to use the latest mysql-connector-java.jar installed for mysql db on the sqoop machine

Answer 3

Try the exact command as like below.

sqoop import --connect "jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/books" --username=root --password=root --table authors --as-textfile --target-dir=/datasqoop/authors_db --columns "id, name, email" --split-by id --driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver

This will resolve your issues.

Answer 4

Try including the option --driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver in the import command.

Answer 5

Sqoop does not ship with third party JDBC drivers. You must download them separately and save them to the /var/lib/sqoop/ directory on the server.

Note: The JDBC drivers need to be installed only on the machine where Sqoop runs. You do not need to install them on all hosts in your Hadoop cluster.

You can download driver from here : https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.1.html

Answer 6

including the option --driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver in the import command worked for me.
