Description

I freshly installed Sqoop2 1.99.7 on my cluster. However, I fail to start sqoop2-shell and I have no such problem with 1.99.5 client. The error message is attached below:

```
$ ./sqoop2-shell

Sqoop home directory: /home/db2inst1/sqoop-1.99.7-bin-hadoop200
Sqoop Shell: Type 'help' or '\h' for help.

```

My cluster is built from scratch. I don't use any open data platform (CDH, HDP, IOP, and so on). In addition, only HDFS, YARN, Hive, and Sqoop2 is installed.

Thanks in advance for anyone who can take a look at this issue.
