title: Unable to list the tables from MS SQL using SQOOP
body: <p>I tried to list the databases in MS SQL using the sqoop command</p>
  
  <pre><code>sqoop list-databases --connect jdbc:sqlserver://10.x.x.x --username my_usrnme --password my_pwd 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>It worked correctly listing all the databases in SQL server.</p>
  
  <p>But when I tried to list the tables in a specific database using the command</p>
  
  <pre><code>sqoop list-tables --connect jdbc:sqlserver://10.x.x.x/db_name --username my_usrnme --password my_pwd
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am getting the error as </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: The TCP/IP connection to the  host 10.x.x.x/db_name, port 1433 has failed. Error: "null. Verify the<br>
    connection properties, check that an instance of SQL Server is running on the  host and accepting TCP/IP connections at the port, and that no firewall is 
    blocking TCP connections to the port."</p>
