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. -- 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
