I recommend running spark in local mode when your first debugging your code just to understand what's happening and step through it, perhaps catch a few errors when you first start off
I personally use intellij because it's my preference You can follow this guide. http://www.bigendiandata.com/2016-08-26-How-to-debug-remote-spark-jobs-with-IntelliJ/ Although it's for intellij you can apply the same concepts to eclipse *I think* Regards Sam On Thu, 16 Feb 2017 at 22:00, Md.
