Apache Spark commented on SPARK-18643: -------------------------------------- User 'felixcheung' has created a pull request for this issue: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/16077 > SparkR hangs at session start when installed as a package without SPARK_HOME > set > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SPARK-18643 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18643 > Project: Spark > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SparkR > Affects Versions: 2.1.0 > Reporter: Felix Cheung > Assignee: Felix Cheung > Priority: Critical > > 1) Install SparkR from source package, ie. > R CMD INSTALL SparkR_2.1.0.tar.gz > 2) Start SparkR (not from sparkR shell) > library(SparkR) > sparkR.session() > Notice SparkR hangs when it couldn't find spark-submit to launch the JVM > backend. > If SparkR is running as a package and it has previously downloaded Spark Jar > it should be able to run as before without having to set SPARK_HOME. > Basically with this bug the auto install Spark will only work in the first > session. > This seems to be a regression on the earlier behavior. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@spark.apache.org
