Amos Wood commented on SQOOP-1138:
----------------------------------
I am also experiencing this issue which is causing my active archiving scheme
to fail. I am using the distribution version from HDP 2.1 (1.4.4.2.1.2.1-471).
> incremental lastmodified should re-use output directory

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-1138
> Project: Sqoop
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Jean-Marc Spaggiari
> Labels: newbie
>
> When using --incremental lastmodified option in sqoop command line "the
> second job will take both the old and new data and will merge them together
> into the final output, preserving only the last updated value for each row."
> However, when I try to run incremental lastmodified twice, the second time I
> get "FileAlreadyExistsException: Output directory already exists".
> The incremental lastmodified should read from this directory to get the data
> from the last run and should not throw an exception.
