Could you check under the log directory for log files to see if there is any error?

Recently a few of us have tried getting it working on local dev machines (ubuntu 14.04) without clusters, i.e. local[*] master and separately downloaded spark 1.3.0 referenced through spark.home. What we're seeing is pyspark notes hanging in the "running" state. Following a few suggestions on the web we've tried setting SPARK_HOME and PYTHONPATH explicitly both in the environment and also in the zeppelin config script. None of this seems to help. I've also tried building the branch and master and I see the same behaviour with both. It would be really good to get this working but we're kind of stumped. Any help appreciated! /T
