error while performing sqoop - merge - hadoop

I was trying to sqoop merge two data sets by importing the data from the netezza server.
below are the data sets with the numeric as id and letters as name:
Both of the below tables are imported from netezza using the commands:
sqoop import --connect neteeza_url --username uname --password pwd --table sqoop_merge_1 --hive-import --warehouse-dir hdfs_pth --create-hive-table sqoop_merge_1 -m 1
sqoop_merge_1:
1,a
2,b
3,c
4,d
5,e
sqoop_merge_2:
4,z
5,y
and the commands are:
sqoop merge --new-data hdfs_path/sqoop_merge_2 --onto hdfs_path/sqoop_merge_1 --target-dir hdfs_path/sqoop_merge_output --jar-file jar_file_path/sqoop_merge_class_name.jar --class-name sqoop_merge_class_name --merge-key id
I created the jar file by using the codegen command:
sqoop codegen --connect netezza_url --username uname --password -pwd --table sqoop_merge_1
But I am getting the following error:
java.io.IOException: Cannot join values on null key. Did you specify a key column that exists?
Tried all the ways i knew but still getting the error.
Please help.

As you are sure about id column existence, it could be an issue due to case-sensitivity.
Check if you specified ID in Netezza?
If yes, try with --merge-key ID.

Sqoop export from Hcatalog to MySQL with different col names assign

Now my hive table with columns - id, name
and MySQL table - number, id, name
I want to map id (from hive) with number (from mysql), name (from hive) with id (from mysql).
I use the command :
sqoop export --hcatalog-database <my_db> --hcatalog-table <my_table> --columns "number,id" \
--connect jdbc:mysql://db...:3306/test \
--username <my_user> --password <my_passwd> --table <my_mysql_table>
However, it didn't work.
The same scenario liked this case can work fine [1]. The requirement can be fulfilled by locating the hive table on hdfs and using the following command to achieve.
sqoop export --export-dir /[hdfs_path] --columns "number,id" \
--connect jdbc:mysql://db...:3306/test \
--username <my_user> --password <my_passwd> --table <my_mysql_table>
Is there any solution can fulfill my scenario via Hcatalog?
reference :
[1]. Sqoop export from hive to oracle with different col names, number of columns and order of columns
I didn't used the hcatalog part of sqoop, but as is written in the manual, the next script should do the work:
sqoop export --hcatalog-database <my_db> --hcatalog-table <my_table> --map-column-hive "number,id" \
--connect jdbc:mysql://db...:3306/test \
--username <my_user> --password <my_passwd> --table <my_mysql_table>
This option: --map-column-hive when is used along with --hcatalog, does the work for hcatalog instead of hive.
Hope that this works for you.

Incrimental update in HIVE table using sqoop

I have a table in oracle with only 4 columns...
Memberid --- bigint
uuid --- String
insertdate --- date
updatedate --- date
I want to import those data in HIVE table using sqoop. I create corresponding HIVE table with
create EXTERNAL TABLE memberimport(memberid BIGINT,uuid varchar(36),insertdate timestamp,updatedate timestamp)LOCATION '/user/import/memberimport';
and sqoop command
sqoop import --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:#dbURL:1521/dbName --username ** --password *** --hive-import --table MEMBER --columns 'MEMBERID,UUID,INSERTDATE,UPDATEDATE' --map-column-hive MEMBERID=BIGINT,UUID=STRING,INSERTDATE=TIMESTAMP,UPDATEDATE=TIMESTAMP --hive-table memberimport -m 1
Its working properly and able to import data in HIVE table.
Now I want to update this table with incremental update with updatedate (last value today's date) so that I can get day to day update for that OLTP table into my HIVE table using sqoop.
For Incremental import I am using following sqoop command
sqoop import --hive-import --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:#dbURL:1521/dbName --username *** --password *** --table MEMBER --check-column UPDATEDATE --incremental append --columns 'MEMBERID,UUID,INSERTDATE,UPDATEDATE' --map-column-hive MEMBERID=BIGINT,UUID=STRING,INSERTDATE=TIMESTAMP,UPDATEDATE=TIMESTAMP --hive-table memberimport -m 1
But I am getting exception
"Append mode for hive imports is not yet supported. Please remove the parameter --append-mode"
When I remove the --hive-import it run properly but I did not found those new update in HIVE table that I have in OLTP table.
Am I doing anything wrong ?
Please suggest me how can I run incremental update with Oracle - Hive using sqoop.
Any help will be appropriated..
Thanks in Advance ...
Although i don't have resources to replicate your scenario exactly.
You might want to try building a sqoop job and test your use case.
sqoop job --create sqoop_job \
-- import \
--connect "jdbc:oracle://server:port/dbname" \
--username=(XXXX) \
--password=(YYYY) \
--table (TableName)\
--target-dir (Hive Directory corresponding to the table) \
--append \
--fields-terminated-by '(character)' \
--lines-terminated-by '\n' \
--check-column "(Column To Monitor Change)" \
--incremental append \
--last-value (last value of column being monitored) \
--outdir (log directory)
when you create a sqoop job, it takes care of --last-value for subsequent runs. Also here i have used the Hive table's data file as target for incremental update.
Hope this provides a helpful direction to proceed.
There is no direct way to achieve this in Sqoop. However you can use 4 Step Strategy.

Can we split Sqoop job by multiple column combination

I am using below Sqoop syntax to split Sqoop job by single column[mostly primary key].
sqoop import --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:#//oracle_server:1521/sid --username xxx --password xxx --table EMPLOYEE --split-by ID -m 10
Can we use multiple columns as combination, if primary key is not available to split Sqoop job?
sqoop import --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:#//oracle_server:1521/sid --username xxx --password xxx --table EMPLOYEE --split-by FIRST_NAME,LAST_NAME -m 10
No. We can use only one column in Split-by otherwise you will get the error message - Invalid column name 'FIRST_NAME,LAST_NAME'.
Please note that if you do not have the split-by column, then you have to explicitly set the --num-mappers 1 or -m 1

Appending Data to hive Table using Sqoop

I am trying to append data to already existing Table in hive.Using the Following command first i import the table from MS-SQL Server to hive.
Sqoop Command:
sqoop import --connect "jdbc:sqlserver://XXX.XX.XX.XX;databaseName=mydatabase" --table "my_table" --where "Batch_Id > 100" --username myuser --password mypassword --hive-import
Now i want to append the data to same existing table in hive where "Batch_Id < 100"
I am using the following Command:
sqoop import --connect "jdbc:sqlserver://XXX.XX.XX.XX;databaseName=mydatabase" --table "my_table" --where "Batch_Id < 100" --username myuser --password mypassword --append --hive-table my_table
This command however runs successfully also updates the HDFS data, but when u connect to hive shell and query the table, the records which are appended are not visible.
Sqoop updated the Data on hdfs "/user/hduser/my_table" but the data on "/user/hive/warehouse/batch_dim" is not updated.
How can reslove this issue.
Regards,
Bhagwant Bhobe
Try using
sqoop import --connect "jdbc:sqlserver://XXX.XX.XX.XX;databaseName=mydatabase"
--table "my_table" --where "Batch_Id < 100"
--username myuser --password mypassword
--hive-import --hive-table my_table
when you are using --hive-import DO NOT use --append parameter.
The Sqoop command you're using (--import) is only for ingesting records into HDFS. You need to use the --hive-import flag to import records into Hive.
See http://sqoop.apache.org/docs/1.4.2/SqoopUserGuide.html#_importing_data_into_hive for more details and for additional import configuration options (you may want to change the document reference to your version of Sqoop, of course).

sqoop import complete but hive show tables can't see table

After install hadoop, hive (CDH version) I execute
./sqoop import -connect jdbc:mysql://10.164.11.204/server -username root -password password -table user -hive-import --hive-home /opt/hive/
All goes fine, but when I enter hive command line and execute show tables, there are nothing.
I use ./hadoop fs -ls, I can see /user/(username)/user existing.
Any help is appreciated.
---EDIT-----------
/sqoop import -connect jdbc:mysql://10.164.11.204/server -username root -password password -table user -hive-import --target-dir /user/hive/warehouse
import fail due to :

Check your hive-site.xml for the value of the property
javax.jdo.option.ConnectionURL. If you do not define this explicitly,
the default value will use a relative path for creation of hive
metastore (jdbc:derby:;databaseName=metastore_db;create=true) which
will be different depending upon where you launch the process from.
This would explain why you cannot see the table via show tables.
define this property value in your
hive-site.xml using an absolute path
no need of creating the table in hive..refer the below query
sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://xxxx.com/Database name --username root --password admin --table tablename (mysql table) --direct -m 1 --hive-import --create-hive-table --hive-table table name --target-dir '/user/hive/warehouse/Tablename(which u want create in hive)' --fields-terminated-by '\t'
In my case Hive stores data in /user/hive/warehouse directory in HDFS. This is where Sqoop should put it.
So I guess you have to add:
--target-dir /user/hive/warehouse
Which is default location for Hive tables (might be different in your case).
You might also want to create this table in Hive:
sqoop create-hive-table --connect jdbc:mysql://host/database --table tableName --username user --password password
in my case it creates table in hive default database, you can give it a try.
sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://xxxx.com/Database name --username root --password admin --table NAME --hive-import --warehouse-dir DIR --create-hive-table --hive-table NAME -m 1
Hive tables will be created by Sqoop import process. Please make sure the /user/hive/warehouse is created in you HDFS. You can browse the HDFS (http://localhost:50070/dfshealth.jsp - Browse the File System option.
Also include the HDFS local in -target dir i.e hdfs://:9000/user/hive/warehouse in the sqoop import command.
First of all , create the table definition in Hive with exact field names and types as in mysql.
Then, perform the import operation
For Hive Import
sqoop import --verbose --fields-terminated-by ',' --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost/test --table tablename --hive-import --warehouse-dir /user/hive/warehouse --fields-terminated-by ',' --split-by id --hive-table tablename
'id' can be your primary key of the existing table
'localhost' can be your local ip
'test' is database
'warehouse' directory is in HDFS
I think all you need is to specify the hive table where data should go.
add "--hive-table database.tablename" to the sqoop command and remove the --hive-home /opt/hive/. I think that should resolve the problem.
