Anna Szonyi commented on SQOOP-3168:
------------------------------------
Hi,
Unfortunately this is a bug that was introduced with SQOOP-2779 and later fixed
by SQOOP-2896. As for a workaround: there is none, besides patching it with the
fix of SQOOP-2896, as for CDH 5.8.0, only creating new jobs or upgrading to
5.8.5+ would solve it, as that is where the fix was first backported.
Apologies and Regards,
Anna

> Hi,
> I have created one sqoop saved job using below command ::
> sqoop job --create <job_name> -- import --connect <url> --driver
> com.mysql.jdbc.Driver --username <username> --password <password> --table
> <table> --target-dir location1 --fields-terminated-by , --escaped-by \\ -m 1
>
> I need to put the data to different location so while execution i have
> provided new location in below command::
> sqoop job --exec jobname1 -- --target-dir location_new
> But it still picks up the target directory from the saved job i.e. location1.
> I am currently using sqoop 1.4.6 CDH 5.8.0 version. When i have checked the
> sqoop code it seems that in sqoop CDH 5.8.0 code for overwritting job
> argument is removed from the method "private int execJob(SqoopOptions opts)"
> in the class "org.apache.sqoop.tool.JobTool" due to issue
> "https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-2779";.
> When i have executed the same command using sqoop 1.4.6 CDH 5.7.3 it is able
> to overwrite the target directory and working as expected.
> Can you please suggest any workaround how to import data to a different
> target directory while executing sqoop saved job.
