[jira] [Commented] (SQOOP-622) possible import bug with embedded LF (0x0A) in VARCHAR field

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-622?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13470550#comment-13470550 ] 

Joel Sciandra commented on SQOOP-622:
-------------------------------------

actually, the LF is in the output file which causes problems processing it. 
Found the actual line and the next line starts with:
`|`null`|.

So, not sure if it could be fixed with --hive-drop-import-delims

> Given the command:

> I have a REMARKS field defined as a VARCHAR2(4000). It is for a comments text box on a web site. Sometimes customers hit <CR> and that gets embedded in the remarks field. 
> When that gets processed, it appears that SQOOP is responding to the contents of the field instead of just outputting the whole thing within the enclosed-by characters.
