https://community.cloudera.com/t5/Support-Questions/Spark-shell-keeps-getting-stuck/m-p/361526#M238619 <P>I am currently going through this guide on ORC format table in Hive via Spark, <A href="https://www.cloudera.com/tutorials/using-hive-with-orc-in-apache-spark-repl.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.cloudera.com/tutorials/using-hive-with-orc-in-apache-spark-repl.html</A><BR /><BR />I have been having a lot of issues with the VMWare HDP Sandbox since the start, which I assume is because I am running it with only 2 CPUs and 22GB of RAM allocated.</P><P>The spark-shell command did execute fully once, but never after that till date. I have tried setting ZooKeeper, Oozie, and Ranger to maintanence mode to allow for some space to run, but this strategy is no longer working,<BR /><BR />Spark-shell command is always stuck after the log level setting prompt. I have ensured that YARN server is running, but to no avail.<BR /><BR />Any help is appreciated.</P> Tue, 17 Jan 2023 15:57:09 GMT BRinxen 2023-01-17T15:57:09Z
