i have set up a single node hadoop cluster and configured it to work

  • 0

i have set up a single node hadoop cluster and configured it to work with apache Hive, now when i imported a mysql table using the following command (using sqoop)

sqoop import –connect jdbc:mysql://localhost/dwhadoop –table orders –username root –password 123456 –hive-import

it runs successfully with some exceptions thrown after that when i do

Hive> show tales;

it does not list the orders table

if i run the import command again it gives me the error that orders dir already exists

please help me find the solution

EDIT:

i havent created any tables prior to the import, do i have to create a table order in hive before running the import. If i import another table Customers it gives me the following exception

[root@localhost root-647263876]# sqoop import --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost/dwhadoop  --table Customers --username root --password 123456 --hive-import

    The main thing to note is your original import fails because Sqoop tries to invoke hive but it’s not in your path. Fix that problem before continuing.

    Then you should just find and remove the Customers directory from hdfs (local, not in HDFS) and try again.

    From what I’ve seen, errors of the form “Customers.java already exists” are not fatal.
