Submitting spark application with master=yarn is giving exception “URL must be set”

I am submitting a spark2 application with yarn as the master. This causes the exception: 

org.apache.spark.SparkException: A master URL must be set in your configuration

From what the searching I've done, I should not be getting this exception 

 

---

Submit Script:

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_131/
spark2-submit --class com.example.myapp.ClusterEntry \
    --name "Hello World" \
    --master yarn \
    --deploy-mode cluster \
    --driver-memory 1g \
    --executor-memory 1g \
    --executor-cores 3 \
    --packages org.apache.kudu:kudu-spark2_2.11:1.4.0 \
    myapp.jar myconf.file

Exception:

18/03/14 15:31:47 WARN scheduler.TaskSetManager: Lost task 1.0 in stage 1.0 (TID 3, vm6.adcluster, executor 1): org.apache.spark.SparkException: A master URL must be set in your configuration

This app when I run it locally, just not on the cluster.

 

One thing that may be relevant is that the application uses a Kudu Client that appears in the exception message in the class "KuduSink".

Hi, 

 

The following code change will work

 

 

SparkConf configuration = new SparkConf() .setAppName("Your Application Name").setMaster("local");

val sc = new SparkContext(conf);

 

Instead of "local" you can use it as "yarn"

 

Thanks

Arun
