SQOOP 1 failed to load Sybase driver - Could not load db driver class: com.sybase.jdbc3.jdbc.SybDriver

I am trying to import data from the sybaseIQ using sqoop-1. The jdts-1.3.1.jar is placed on /sqoop/sqoop-1.4.6/lib folder.

When this syntax runs,

sqoop import  --connect '`jdbc:jtds:sybase:tds`://10.***.*.***@5500:*****' --driver 'com.sybase.jdbc3.jdbc.SybDriver'  --username "username" --password -p --query "select * from dw.DM_ADDRESS where rownum <= 1000 and \$CONDITIONS" --target-dir "/user/*****/WT_Address_Itc" --split-by 1 --verbose
and am getting this error:

17/03/02 11:15:19 DEBUG manager.SqlManager: Execute getColumnInfoRawQuery : select  * from dw.DM_ADDRESS_ITC where rownum <= 1000 and (1 = 0)

What am I missing here? Am I using the right driver? That's the one available on the http://jtds.sourceforge.net/ site?

I would really appreciate your help in this!

Solution

  • The driver class com.sybase.jdbc3.jdbc.SybDriver belongs to jconn3.jar
    Download jconn3.jar and place it in $SQOOP_HOME/lib directory.

    And the connectionString must be,

    jdbc:sybase:Tds:dbhost:dbport/DATABASE=dbname
