----------------------------------------

             Summary: URI format for --password-file argument
                 Key: SQOOP-2108
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SQOOP-2108
             Project: Sqoop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: docs
    Affects Versions: 1.4.5
            Reporter: Mariano Dominguez


If no scheme (file, hdfs) is provided in the URI when using the --password-file 
argument, Sqoop goes to HDFS by default to get the password file.

This appears to be confusing to some users. Please add clarification about 
using the 'file' scheme in the URI if the password file is stored in the local 
FS.

Relevant documentation:

Secure way of supplying password to the database.
