----------------------------------

             Summary: Confusing error message when using rangeBetween without 
specifying an "orderBy"
                 Key: SPARK-18170
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18170
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Weiluo Ren
            Priority: Minor


{code}
spark.range(1,3).select(sum('id) over Window.rangeBetween(0,1)).show
{code}
throws runtime exception:
{code}
Non-Zero range offsets are not supported for windows with multiple order 
expressions.
{code}
which is confusing in this case because we don't have any order expression here.

How about add a check on
{code}
orderSpec.isEmpty
{code}
at 
https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/sql/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/sql/execution/window/WindowExec.scala#L141
and throw an exception saying "no order expressions is specified"?
