@samurai I already tried these options, none of these work. when i do "su -" followed by password I get this su: cannot set groups: Operation not permitted ls -ltr /usr/bin/sudo -rwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 123832 /usr/bin/sudo 1. Not sure what is the "." at the end of permissions rwx. 2. I have to change the group of this sudo file to '0' but to do that also I should have sudo access, so its an endless loop. 3. I think there is no way to reset it while booting a cloudera machine either. Currently I am working on another VM but I will have to alter all the configurations settings again what I did so far, as when the error occurs. ... View more

@Revathy Mourouguessane Not sure if you already solved it, I was facing the same issue today and finally was able to resolve it. You dont have to give .class extension in the argument, just give --class-name customerInfo This is the command I ran and its working fine, merging data from two directories into a new hdfs directory, keeping newer directory data as priority: sqoop merge --class-name customerInfo --jar-file customerInfo.jar --new-date /user/cloudera/new_dir/ --onto /user/cloudera/old_dir --merge-key id --target-dir /user/cloudera/new_emp_dir I kept the .jar and .class files in the bin directory of sqoop where i run commands, if you have it in some other paths - give the complete path and make sure it has the appropriate access. Hope this helps. I'd be interested and thrilled if we could help each other learn in future too! ... View more

I am trying to run a similar flume agent with HTTP source on the VM installed on my local computer. Not sure if the path and port is correct. When I ran my agent like this: ./flume-ng agent -n HttpAgent -c conf -f flume.conf it is stuck at the point http-source started. Not sure what's happening and not able to see the flume logs either! HttpAgent.sinks.hdfs-sink.hdfs.path = hdfs://quickstart.cloudera:8020/user/cloudera/output/http_flume Also if you can explain what will my output file be like when this works? Any suggestions? ...
