Devin Suiter created SQOOP-1294:
-----------------------------------
Summary: Newline or EOL character detected by --password-file
parameter
Key: SQOOP-1294
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1294
Project: Sqoop
Issue Type: Bug
Components: connectors, connectors/mysql, connectors/sqlserver
Affects Versions: 1.4.3
Environment: Centos 6.5, CDH 4.5/4.6 with packaged Sqoop 1.4.3, ViM 7.2
Reporter: Devin Suiter
When using the --password-file parameter, I've found that if I create the file
with the command 'vi filename', enter insert mode, type the password, write,
and quit, the password is not recognized. Single- and double-quotes do not fix
it. I've found that by running the command 'echo -n password > filename' the
password will be recognized. It seems that the newline or EOL character is
being read as part of the password. This has occurred with the MySQL connector
and the MSSQLjdbc4 connector.
