Sqoop imports into secure hbase fails - mysql

Question

I am using hadoop-2.6.0 with kerberos security. I have installed hbase with kerberos security and could able to create table and scan it.
I could run sqoop job as well to import data from mysql into hdfs but sqoop job fails when trying to import from mysql into HBase.
Sqoop Command
sqoop import --hbase-create-table --hbase-table newtable --column-family ck --hbase-row-key id --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost/sample --username root --password root --table newtable -m 1
Exception

Answer 1

Could you please try the following :
In the connection string add the port number as :
jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/sample
Remove --table newtable. Create the required table on Hbase first with the column family.
mention --split-by id
Finally mention a specific --fetch-size , as the sqoop client for MySQL have an error internally which attempts to set the default MIN fetch size which will run into an exception.
Could you attempt the import again and let us know ?
