Hi,
I encountered a ClassNotFoundException when I used DBInputFormat. I
packaged my codes with mysql-connector-java-5.1.24.jar to abc.jar. Then I
run the following command to run:
hadoop jar abc.jar a.b.c.Main
But it is crashed by the following exception:

I read the DBConfiguration.java file, and found it uses "Class.forName" to
load "com.mysql.jdbc.Driver":
/** Returns a connection object to the DB.
* @throws ClassNotFoundException
* @throws SQLException */
public Connection getConnection()
throws ClassNotFoundException, SQLException {
Connection connection;
Class.forName(conf.get(DBConfiguration.DRIVER_CLASS_PROPERTY));
I think that's why my application crashed. The classloader of
DBConfiguration is sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader, but
"com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" exists in the URLClassLoader created by
org.apache.hadoop.util.RunJar.
So "Class.forName" invoked by DBConfiguration can not find
"com.mysql.jdbc.Driver" in the sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader.
Why does DBConfiguration not use "conf.getClassByName" to load the jdbc
driver? If DBConfiguration use the following code, it can work in such
situation.
conf.getClassByName(conf.get(DBConfiguration.DRIVER_CLASS_PROPERTY));
Is there any similar issue? Sorry that I can not find any JIRA about this
problem.
