using Sqoop 1.4.4 with Hadoop 2.4.0

[Sebastian Gäde]

Hi,

I’d like to export MR result (text) files from HDFS to MySQL. My cluster is
running Hadoop 2.4.0.

When I’m running 
./sqoop export –connect jdbc:mysql://mysqlserver/sqoop –username user
–password pass –table test1 –export-dir /output
I get the below exception. I assume, sqoop is using the old MR API? Can I
change this somehow to use the new API, then I'd be able to point
$HADOOP_MAPRED_HOME to the right position?!
