I would like to run Spark from source code on my Windows machine. I did the following steps:
git clone https://github.com/apache/spark
Added the SPARK_HOME variable into the user variables.
Added %SPARK_HOME%\bin to the PATH variable.
./build/mvn -DskipTests clean package
./bin/spark-shell
The last command returns the following error:
What should I do to fix the error?
First, refer to the link below for the solution. The top voted answer gave me the working script for this problem.
: Failed to start master for Spark in Windows
The reason is that spark launch scripts do not support Windows. The spark documentation (https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.2.0/spark-standalone.html) insists you to start the master and workers manually if you are a Windows user. So you need to first run the master and then run spark-shell.
I am new on Apache Spark. I am trying to setup Apache Spark to my Macbook.
I download file "spark-2.4.0-bin-hadoop2.7" from Apache Spark official web site.
When I try to run ./bin/spark-shell or ./bin/pyspark I get Permission denied error.
I want to just run spark on my local machine.
I also tried to give permission to all folders but it does not help.
Why do I this error?
This should solve your problem chmod +x /Users/apple/spark-2.4.0-bin-hadoop2.7/bin/*
Then you could try executing bin/pyspark (spark shell in python) or bin/spark-shell (spark shell in scala).
I solve this issue by adding /libexec folder to spark home path
set $SPARK_HOME to
/usr/local/Cellar/apache-spark/<your_spark_version>/libexec
I am trying to run spark-submit command from drive/folder where my python script and dataset is H:\spark_material. It just won't work !
But if I copy my python script into this folder C:\spark\bin then it works.
I believe it has something to do with environment variables.
Here is my Path = %JAVA_HOME%\bin; %SPARK_HOME%\bin
Here are my variables:
HADOOP_HOME = C:\winutils
JAVA_HOME = C:\jdk
SPARK_HOME = C:\spark
Java is properly installed as I have tried typing "java -version" anywhere in CMD and it works!!
Open your cmd and type path and check is apache spark path specify till bin folder
If not please fix your path
It was/is mystery - I re-installed everything one by one on my machine except operating system and it was an issue with Python distribution in my opinion. When I reinstalled Canopy(enthought), spark-submit command started to work. I still don't know why it happened as even in my previous version of Canopy (Python) was working fine properly.
Thank you everyone for your response and contribution. Learnt a lot from you guys.
I installed spark-1.5.1-bin-without-hadoop and trying to start beeline using the following command from spark install directory.
./bin/beeline
I get "Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.hive.beeline.BeeLine".
Not sure why the classpath is not working. I ran into same issue and ended up running java with the jars under lib_managed directory. Note that verbose option is used because no errors are shown in some NoClassDef cases.
java -cp lib_managed/jars/hive-exec-1.2.1.spark.jar:lib_managed/jars/hive-metastore-1.2.1.spark.jar:lib_managed/jars/httpcore-4.3.1.jar:lib_managed/jars/httpclient-4.3.2.jar:lib_managed/jars/libthrift-0.9.2.jar:lib_managed/jars/hive-beeline-1.2.1.spark.jar:lib_managed/jars/jline-2.12.jar:lib_managed/jars/commons-cli-1.2.jar:lib_managed/jars/super-csv-2.2.0.jar:lib_managed/jars/commons-logging-1.1.3.jar:lib_managed/jars/hive-jdbc-1.2.1.spark.jar:lib_managed/jars/hive-cli-1.2.1.spark.jar:lib_managed/jars/hive-service-1.2.1.spark.jar:assembly/target/scala-2.10/spark-assembly-1.5.3-SNAPSHOT-hadoop2.2.0.jar org.apache.hive.beeline.BeeLine -u jdbc:hive2://<thrift server public address>:10000/default --verbose=true
I had exactly same problem. For me setting SPARK_HOME environment variable did it!
export SPARK_HOME=/Users/../Downloads/spark-2.1.1-bin-hadoop2.7
This is because if you actually open and see "bin/beeline" script file, you'll find this line:
Figure out if SPARK_HOME is set
So, after setting SPARK_HOME to proper location, beeline started working fine.
I was trying to run spark-submit and I get
"Failed to find Spark assembly JAR.
You need to build Spark before running this program."
When I try to run spark-shell I get the same error.
What I have to do in this situation.
On Windows, I found that if it is installed in a directory that has a space in the path (C:\Program Files\Spark) the installation will fail. Move it to the root or another directory with no spaces.
Your Spark package doesn't include compiled Spark code. That's why you got the error message from these scripts spark-submit and spark-shell.
You have to download one of pre-built version in "Choose a package type" section from the Spark download page.
Try running mvn -DskipTests clean package first to build Spark.
If your spark binaries are in a folder where the name of the folder has spaces (for example, "Program Files (x86)"), it didn't work. I changed it to "Program_Files", then the spark_shell command works in cmd.
In my case, I install spark by pip3 install pyspark on macOS system, and the error caused by incorrect SPARK_HOME variable. It works when I run command like below:
PYSPARK_PYTHON=python3 SPARK_HOME=/usr/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages/pyspark python3 wordcount.py a.txt
Go to SPARK_HOME. Note that your SPARK_HOME variable should not include /bin at the end. Mention it when you're when you're adding it to path like this: export PATH=$SPARK_HOME/bin:$PATH
Run export MAVEN_OPTS="-Xmx2g -XX:ReservedCodeCacheSize=1g" to allot more memory to maven.
Run ./build/mvn -DskipTests clean package and be patient. It took my system 1 hour and 17 minutes to finish this.
Run ./dev/make-distribution.sh --name custom-spark --pip. This is just for python/pyspark. You can add more flags for Hive, Kubernetes, etc.
Running pyspark or spark-shell will now start pyspark and spark respectively.
If you have downloaded binary and getting this exception
Then please check your Spark_home path may contain spaces like "apache spark"/bin
Just remove spaces will works.
Just to add to #jurban1997 answer.
If you are running windows then make sure that SPARK_HOME and SCALA_HOME environment variables are setup right. SPARK_HOME should be pointing to {SPARK_HOME}\bin\spark-shell.cmd
For Windows machine with the pre-build version as of today (21.01.2022):
In order to verify all the edge cases you may have and avoid tedious guesswork about what exactly is not configred properly:
Find spark-class2.cmd and open it in with a text editor
Inspect the arguments of commands staring with call or if exists by typing the arguments in Command Prompt like this:
Open Command Prompt. (For PowerShell you need to print the var another way)
Copy-paste %SPARK_HOME%\bin\ as is and press enter.
If you see something like bin\bin in the path displayed now then you have appended /bin in your environment variable %SPARK_HOME%.
Now you have to add the path to the spark/bin to your PATH variable or it will not find spark-submit command
Try out and correct every path variable that the script in this file uses and and you should be good to go.
After that enter spark-submit ... you may now encounter the missing hadoop winutils.exe for which problem you can go get the tool and paste it where the spark-submit.cmd is located
Spark Installation:
For Window machine:
Download spark-2.1.1-bin-hadoop2.7.tgz from this site https://spark.apache.org/downloads.html
Unzip and Paste your spark folder in C:\ drive and set environment variable.
If you don’t have Hadoop,
you need to create Hadoop folder and also create Bin folder in it and then copy and paste winutils.exe file in it.
download winutils file from [https://codeload.github.com/gvreddy1210/64bit/zip/master][1]
and paste winutils.exe file in Hadoop\bin folder and set environment variable for c:\hadoop\bin;
create temp\hive folder in C:\ drive and give the full permission to this folder like:
C:\Windows\system32>C:\hadoop\bin\winutils.exe chmod 777 /tmp/hive
open command prompt first run C:\hadoop\bin> winutils.exe and then navigate to C:\spark\bin>
run spark-shell
