Importing from OracleDBJames Hogarth 2013-02-01, 13:37
Hitting an interesting test case here using
sqoop-1.4.1+54-1.cdh4.1.2.p0.21.el6.noarch ...
I have an OracleDB where I need to do a daily grab of a particular table -
ultimately it needs to end in hive...
The OracleDB is running 11.2.0.2 and I'm using the 11.2.0.3 (ie current)
jdbc thin (java6 of course) driver.
I've tried quite the variety of combination of username and table name
capitalization options (as per that known issue) both quoting and not
quoting. I should note that for security reasons on this particular
database I have access to a synonym only and not a standard table.
If I don't specify the columns to import (so attempt to let sqoop
automatically get the list of columns for the table) I get:
[me@client ~]$ sqoop import --connect jdbc:oracle:thin:@database:1525:SID
--username user --password pass --table table1 --num-mappers 1
--target-dir table1_temp --verbose

Re: Importing from OracleDBJarek Jarcec Cecho 2013-02-01, 17:26
Hi James,
I'm afraid that using synonyms is not supported by Oracle driver. The problem is that Oracle driver is issuing following query to get columns for imported table:
SELECT COLUMN_NAME FROM ALL_TAB_COLUMNS WHERE OWNER = ? AND TABLE_NAME = ? ORDER BY COLUMN_ID
This query returns no rows for synonym and thus import fails.
As a workaround I would recommend to try out Generic JDBC Connector that is not using this query to fetch table metadata. You can force Sqoop to use Generic JDBC Connector by passing "--driver" parameter with value oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver, e.g.
sqoop import --connect ... --driver oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
Another solution that might possibly help you is to install OraOop connector, but I'm not sure whether it supports synonyms or not.

Hi Jarcec
Thanks for confirming that.
In the end my workaround with specifying the columns capitalised ended up
working nicely and isn't so bad seeing as I needed to cast the oracle type
'number' to Long/BIGINT on a couple of the columns anyway...

Hi James,
I'm glad to hear that you found reasonable workaround! If you think that supporting synonyms make sense, please do not hesitate and open new JIRA [1] for that.
