[jira] [Commented] (SQOOP-931) Integrate HCatalog with Sqoop

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-931?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13740468#comment-13740468 ] 

Sonya Ling commented on SQOOP-931:
----------------------------------

I tried sqoop-1.4.4 for this feature today.  I have Hive 0.11.0 that has hcatalog merged into it. I have Hadoop 2.0.0-cdh4.3.0.    I run statement similar to the followings:
 
sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://<host>/<database> --username <user> --password <password> --table transaction --hcatalog-table transaction --create-hcatalog-table --where "date >= 08-01-2012" --hive-partition-key date

It went through and started hadoop job but halt due the following error: 
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IncompatibleClassChangeError: Found interface org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobContext, but class was expected
	at org.apache.hcatalog.mapreduce.HCatBaseOutputFormat.getJobInfo(HCatBaseOutputFormat.java:94)
	at org.apache.hcatalog.mapreduce.HCatBaseOutputFormat.getOutputFormat(HCatBaseOutputFormat.java:82)
	at org.apache.hcatalog.mapreduce.HCatBaseOutputFormat.checkOutputSpecs(HCatBaseOutputFormat.java:72)
	at org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobSubmitter.checkSpecs(JobSubmitter.java:417)

I know this is due to Hadoop version conflict issue. HCatBaseOutputFormat is expecting Hadoop 1.0.x but I have Hadoop 2.0.x.   I saw similar error when I ran Ozzie.  I could get around by add mapred.mapper.new-api and mapred.reducer.new-api to true in workflow.xml of ozzie.   I added the same properties to proto-hive-site.xml in hcatalog/etc.  It did not work.   I checked hcatalog 0.50 source codes.  It does not use those properties.

How can I get around this issue?   Please advise.  Thanks.

>  Apache HCatalog is a table and storage management service that provides a shared schema, data types and table abstraction freeing users from being concerned about where or how their data is stored.  It provides interoperability across  Pig, Map Reduce, and Hive.
> A sqoop hcatalog connector will help in supporting storage formats that are abstracted by HCatalog.
