### What doesn't meet your expectations?
Create catalog error:
```sql
Flink SQL> CREATE CATALOG my_catalog WITH (
> 'type'='paimon',
> 'warehouse'='file:/tmp/paimon'
> );
[ERROR] Could not execute SQL statement. Reason:
org.apache.flink.table.api.ValidationException: Could not find any factory for identifier 'paimon' that implements 'org.apache.flink.table.factories.CatalogFactory' in the classpath.
Available factory identifiers are:
generic_in_memory
```

Research direction
Start with the Flink quick-start documentation and the CREATE CATALOG reproduction using paimon-flink-1.17-0.5-SNAPSHOT.jar. Investigate why the paimon CatalogFactory is not found in the classpath; done means the documented SQL creates my_catalog successfully instead of reporting only generic_in_memory.
