Sean Owen commented on SPARK-1911:
----------------------------------

[~andrewor14] {{compute-classpath.sh}} will now show a warning in this 
situation (cf. SPARK-1703). I will send a PR for the doc change. Is this the 
same issue as SPARK-1753?

> Warn users if their assembly jars are not built with Java 6
> -----------------------------------------------------------

>                 Key: SPARK-1911
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1911
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Documentation
>    Affects Versions: 1.1.0
>            Reporter: Andrew Or
>
> The root cause of the problem is detailed in: 
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1520.
> In short, an assembly jar built with Java 7+ is not always accessible by 
> Python or other versions of Java (especially Java 6). If the assembly jar is 
> not built on the cluster itself, this problem may manifest itself in strange 
> exceptions that are not trivial to debug. This is an issue especially for 
> PySpark on YARN, which relies on the python files included within the 
> assembly jar.
> Currently we warn users only in make-distribution.sh, but most users build 
> the jars directly. At the very least we need to emphasize this in the docs 
> (currently missing entirely). The next step is to add a warning prompt in the 
> mvn scripts whenever Java 7+ is detected.
