David Randolph commented on SQOOP-485:
--------------------------------------
If I take --append off the command, it still fails immediately.
The use case is simply to import a set of new data to a particular Hive
warehouse table from Oracle at some interval. Except for the hanging of the
command, running with the --target-dir flag does exactly what is needed.
> --hive-import cannot be used with --query

> I can work around this immediate failure by specifying the --target-dir flag.
> This seems to do the right thing, but the sqoop command hangs. Also, use of
> --target-dir with --hive-import is discouraged in SQOOP-464.
> How can I use the --query flag to import into Hive?
