Oozie Workflow with Sqoop Action to Oracle Database Problem

avatar
Rising Star

Hey guys,

I am new with HDP (v2.5 as Sandbox) and I am trying to submit an Oozie job using a Sqoop action to connect to an Oracle Database. I managed to run Oozie jobs with a simple Hive action and a simple Sqoop action (just sending 'version') - both worked. The error occurs when sending the command:

<command>sqoop-list-tables --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:@//XX.XX.XX.XXX:XXXX/NAME --username USER --password PW</command>

The error is:

2016-11-08 15:14:46,581  WARN SqoopActionExecutor:523 - SERVER[sandbox.hortonworks.com] USER[root] GROUP[-] TOKEN[] APP[sqoopaction] JOB[0000065-161107122627815-oozie-oozi-W] ACTION[0000065-161107122627815-oozie-oozi-W@sqoopjob] Launcher ERROR, reason: Main class [org.apache.oozie.action.hadoop.SqoopMain], exit code [1]

Actually, the command is working from the command line so it has something to do with Oozie. At some point I have read that there might be an issue with the ojdbc6.jar file so I copied it to several /lib/ folders without success. To get rid of the spaces inbetween the command I also tried <arg></arg> but it didn't work.

What am I doing wrong here? Any advice is appreciated! I really have no clue what to do and the error log doesn't help.

Thanks and regards,

Ken

It seems that I managed to solve the problem.

What was missing:

oozie admin -oozie http://localhost:11000/oozie -sharelibupdate

One can check the share lib by

oozie admin -oozie http://localhost:11000/oozie -shareliblist sqoop

I hope this helps also others and this should be the same for different database systems.
