Sqoop does not ship with third party JDBC drivers. You must download them separately and save them to the /var/lib/sqoop/ directory on the server.
Note: The JDBC drivers need to be installed only on the machine where Sqoop runs. You do not need to install them on all hosts in your Hadoop cluster.
You can download driver from here : https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/5.1.html
