Issues using sqoop command while listing database

Question

I was able to successfully create databases, tables and inserted records into it. Now, I am encountering an issue while executing sqoop command to either list the databases/tables or to insert into HDFS using the command. 

$ sqoop -list-databases \
> --connect jdbc:mysql://mysqld \
> --username root -password edureka;
Warning: /usr/lib/hcatalog does not exist! HCatalog jobs will fail.
Please set to the root of your HCatalog installation.
No such sqoop tool: -list-databases. See sqoop

Please use the following command.

sqoop list-databases --connect jdbc:mysql://localhost/ -username root -P

It should work
