Getting Error in Sqoop Import from Oracle & Mssql database in Hive Table as Parquet Format

I am getting same error in using sqoop import while fetching data from either Mssql or Oracle database.

Oracle ->

sqoop import --connect "jdbc:oracle:thin:@<ServerName>:<PortName>:<Database>" --hadoop-home "/usr/hdp/2.4.0.0-169/hadoop" --username <UserName> --password <Password> --table <TableName> --hive-overwrite --columns "COL_NAM" --hive-import -hive-database ia_db -hive-table par_str_cols --map-column-hive db_user_nam=string --as-parquetfile -m 1

Mssql ->

sqoop import --connect "jdbc:sqlserver://<ServerName>:<PortNo>;database=<DatabaseName>" --username <UserName> --password <Password> --table <TableName> --hive-overwrite --columns "COLUMN1, COLUMN2" --where "COLUMN1 = 7390" --hive-import --target-dir /apps/hive/warehouse/ia_db.db/par_int_cols --as-parquetfile -m 1

I have tried with Integer, Decimal and String columns and getting same error.

Note - I am able to import same data in Hive tables as simple text files but getting this error while importing in Parquet format.

Can someone give some pointers on what "Error: parquet.Preconditions.checkArgument(ZLjava/lang/String;[Ljava/lang/Object;)V" is this?

I was able to reproduce this issue and it looks like a jar version mismatch for parquet on sandbox. Is there a reason for using parquet instead of ORC here? While both are supported on hive, ORC has advantages when using with hive since some of the stinger initiative improvements to hive take advantage of ORC.

Here is an example of using ORC from sqoop.

sqoop import --connect "jdbc:sqlserver://<ServerName>:<PortNo>;database=<DatabaseName>" --username <UserName> --password <Password> --table <TableName> --columns "COLUMN1, COLUMN2" --where "COLUMN1 = 7390" --hcatalog-database default --hcatalog-table my_table_orc --create-hcatalog-table --hcatalog-storage-stanza "stored as orcfile"
