Devin Suiter updated SQOOP-1294:
--------------------------------
Description: When importing 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. (was: When using the
