我是採用的源代码编译的包安装的， 主要是考虑到会对部分功能做裁剪或增强， 详细源代码编译方式能够參考另外一篇博文《编译Sqoop2错误解决》。然后从dist/target文件夹下拷贝sqoop-1.99.3.tar.gz压缩包的内容到/usr/lib/sqoop文件夹中。
接下来便是開始对相关配置文件进行配置，注意sqoop2是区分了server和client端的，我们首先安装服务端，记得服务端须要安装到能够运行hadoop命令行的机器上。最直接的方式就是安装到hadoop集群某个节点上，而客户端能够在不论什么机器上，仅仅要能与sqoop server进行通信的机器即可。
1、服务端安装配置
进入/usr/lib/sqoop/server/conf文件夹，能够看到里面有几个配置文件， 有关于tomcat容器的还有sqoop本身的，首先我们配置catilina.properties，须要将hadoop的jar包依赖进来，当然，假设还须要导入hive或hbase，相应的jar包也须要照这样增加：
common.loader=${catalina.base}/lib,${catalina.base}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/lib,${catalina.home}/lib/*.jar,${catalina.home}/../lib/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/common/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/common/lib/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/hdfs/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/hdfs/lib/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/mapreduce/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/mapreduce/lib/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/tools/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/tools/lib/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/yarn/*.jar,/home/cdh/hadoop-2.3.0-cdh5.1.2/share/hadoop/yarn/lib/*.jar然后改动sqoop.properties。里面能够配置日志输出路径， 元数据内嵌数据库deby的信息等,须要注意的是改动deby库名为SQOOP。默认不是这个，而代码中却写死的这个，囧。 我们最主要改动下面位置：
<pre name="code" class="html"># JDBC repository provider configuration org.apache.sqoop.repository.jdbc.handler=org.apache.sqoop.repository.derby.DerbyRepositoryHandler org.apache.sqoop.repository.jdbc.transaction.isolation=READ_COMMITTED org.apache.sqoop.repository.jdbc.maximum.connections=10 org.apache.sqoop.repository.jdbc.url=jdbc:derby:@BASEDIR@/repository/SQOOP;create=true org.apache.sqoop.repository.jdbc.driver=org.apache.derby.jdbc.EmbeddedDriver org.apache.sqoop.repository.jdbc.user=sa org.apache.sqoop.repository.jdbc.password=
# # Configuration for Mapreduce submission engine (applicable if it's configured) # # Hadoop configuration directory org.apache.sqoop.submission.engine.mapreduce.configuration.directory=/home/cdh/hadoop/etc/hadoop/另外配置临时不用怎么特殊配置，保持默认即可， 假设须要能够进一步特殊配置即可， 毕竟先玩起来是要事！
最后须要做的一件事情就是将mysql-connector-java-5.1.20.jar这个MySQL驱动放入/usr/lib/sqoop/server/lib文件夹下：
最后便是启动服务端(我是安装到192.168.69.16):
/usr/lib/sqoop/bin/sqoop.sh server start
而作为客户端不须要不论什么配置。直接将压缩分发包发送到对应机器上解压，运行 bin/sqoop.sh client就可以进入shell命令行界面，详细使用能够參考官方文档：
遗留问题。 启动老是报一个错误，应该是日志jar冲突导致的，一直没搞定，假设有知道怎样处理的，能够一起交流哈：
