Microsoft Azure HDinsight Ambari Sqoop和Postgres

Question

Trying to import data from postgres into hdfs on Microsoft Azure HDInsigt. Now i started with a very simple command if listing dbs

sqoop list-databases --connect jdbc.postgresql://xx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy --username myuser --password mypassword

i get the following error

ERROR tool.BaseSqoopTool: Got error creating database manager: java.io.IOException: No manager for connect string: jdbc.postgresql://52.178.204.150:4321

    at org.apache.sqoop.Sqoop.runTool(Sqoop.java:235)
    at org.apache.sqoop.Sqoop.main(Sqoop.java:244)

I tried adding the following args

--libjars=/usr/share/java/postgresql-jdbc4.jar
--driver org.postgresql.Driver 
--connection-manager org.apache.sqoop.manager.GenericJdbcManager

These still do not help the HDInsight manual only gives an example to use Microsoft SQL.

Answer 1

Your connection string is wrong: jdbc. should be jdbc:
