Sqoop import - special characters

avatar
Contributor

All,

Working on importing data from DB2 using sqoop import, it worked fine for the most part except one table, which seemed to have some special characters ( control-M = ^M ) in contents, hence while sqooping, these characters are treated as newline and hence everything after it will be on the next line in the imported files, which will affect all the records after one bad record.

I am unable to guess how to fix the imports? is there any easy way?
