Hello all,

I have this below action Oozie workflow but I keep getting these error:

Would you please help me why I got the Unrecognized argument ?

Thank you for your help.

This looks like it could be due to a typo in one of your arguments. Your workflow contains "--hive-drop-import-delimns" (note the "n" as the second to last character), but according to the sqoop documentation, this should be "--hive-drop-import-delims". Can you try correcting that and see if your job successfully parses?
