Sqoop to Informix connection issue

Kanchan — Fri, 16 Sep 2022 10:34:42 GMT

Hello All,

I am trying to connect to my informix database via sqoop with following command

sqoop list-tables --driver com.informix.jdbc.IfxDriver --connect jdbc:informixsqli://DevIrisApp1:1534/fms:informixserver=cchsup --username xxx --password xxx

I do have copied informix jdbc driver to my sqoop lib directory but still getting the following issue

16/08/14 00:27:09 INFO manager.SqlManager: Using default fetchSize of 1000
16/08/14 00:27:09 ERROR manager.SqlManager: Error reading database metadata: java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver found for jdbc:informixsqli://DevIrisApp1:1534/fms:informixserver=cchsup

Have you placed all the requisite JDBC jars required to connect to Informix
under /var/lib/sqoop/ on the host you are trying to invoke this command on?
