> To reproduce the error, 
> 1) Create a table "foo" with a column name "I" on Oracle DB
> 2) Run sqoop import --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:@//localhost/xe --username **** --password **** --verbose --table foo --split-by i --columns i --hive-import
> This generates the following call stack:
> {code}
> 12/05/01 16:12:00 ERROR sqoop.Sqoop: Got exception running Sqoop: java.lang.NullPointerException
> java.lang.NullPointerException

> {code}
> The reason is simple. In the following lines of code:
> {code}
> Integer colType = columnTypes.get(col);
> ...
> tring hiveColType = connManager.toHiveType(colType);
> {code}
> colType is null because column "i" does not exist in the table "foo" but "I" exists. Now toHiveType(int colType) tries to autocast a null to a primitive int, resulting a NPE.
> It would be better if more informative message is provided rather than a random NPE.
