Hi Mohammad, This is most likely caused by the username being specified in lower case - can you retry with it in uppercase for example: "--username PPDMDB".
You could also try Quest® Data Connector for Oracle and Hadoop which is available here: http://toadforcloud.com/entry.jspa?categoryID=677&externalID=4298 It does not require the username or table name to be in uppercase and has a lot of other improvements. It is Apache licensed and the source code can be found here: https://github.com/QuestSoftwareTCD/OracleSQOOPconnector Regards, David -----Original Message----- From: Mohammad Tariq [mailto:donta...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, 15 December 2011 4:47 PM To: sqoop-user@incubator.apache.org Subject: Problem in using sqoop with oracle Hello list, I am trying to store the tables from an oracle database on a remote machine and store it in the Hbase.
