RE: Issue with setting JAVA_HOME

["Zhou, Richard" <ri...@intel.com>]

Hey Divya:

                I guess that Abe means you could write a script like

[root@server-654 test]# cat mysqoop.sh
export JAVA_HOME="your_java_home"
./sqoop.sh $*

And run mysqoop.sh just like sqoop


Mysqoop.sh import --connect jdbc:mysql:// --username XXX --password YYY --table test …

Richard

Subject: Re: Issue with setting JAVA_HOME


What parameter do we need to set in the wrapper script to make sqoop use jdk. We know setting $JAVA_HOME system property will change it for the entire system. We don’t want to do that since we have other hadoop services running on the same node, and we don’t want them to run on jdk.  The other solution would be to set JAVA_HOME variable to point to jdk in hadoop_env.sh, but even this solution would make all the other hadoop services to use jdk. So is there another variable which I can set which will be only sqoop specific and make only sqoop use jdk while other hadoop services on the node still use jre.

 And we have sqoop client written in java. Is there anything that needs to be set programmatically?

Sqoop1 is a CLI tool. You should be able to just write a wrapper script that sets them and calls sqoop.

sqoop-sys.sh doesn't exist in sqoop1.

Is there a similar work around in sqoop1?

Thanks,

Hello,

I am trying to run sqoop and yarn on the same machine.

Sqoop needs JAVA_HOME be set to JDK whereas yarn requires JRE(which is the recommended setting).

Can this setting be changed dynamically so it can pick up JDK for sqoop and JRE for yarn?

Or any workarounds possible?

Please let me know!

Thanks,
Divya
