> Sqoop metastore cannot be started due to missing hsqldb jar file
> ----------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: SQOOP-508
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-508
> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: build
> Affects Versions: 1.4.1-incubating
> Reporter: Cheolsoo Park
> Assignee: Cheolsoo Park
> Priority: Critical
> Fix For: 1.4.2

> This is a packing issue. Since a hsqldb jar is not packed in the distribution
> tarball, sqoop-metastore fails with the following error:
> {code}
> 12/06/25 01:15:46 WARN hsqldb.HsqldbMetaStore: The location for metastore
> data has not been explicitly set. Placing shared metastore files in
> /home/cheolsoo/.sqoop/shared-metastore.db
> Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/hsqldb/Server
> at
> org.apache.sqoop.metastore.hsqldb.HsqldbMetaStore.start(HsqldbMetaStore.java:111)
> {code}
> To reproduce the issue, please do the following:
> 1) checkout sqoop trunk
> 2) ant clean tar
> 3) cd build/sqoop-1.4.2-incubating-SNAPSHOT.bin__hadoop-0.23
> 4) ./bin/sqoop metastore
> This may be not an issue if a hsqldb jar is already installed by another
> project and therefore exists in classpath. For example, CDH3 installs a
> hsqldb jar in /usr/lib/hadoop/lib. However, it is not always true in all
> distributions (e.g. CDH4).
> The fix seems to include a hsqldb jar in the distribution tarball.
> There is also a bigtop jira
> [BIGTOP-639|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-639] regarding this
> issue.
