libkudu_client.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

[#1]

hello cloudera community,

we are trying to use pyspark to interact with kudu

We were able to successfully execute the command below:

import kudu

but when running the command below:

from kudu.client import Partitioning

returns the error

ImportError: libkudu_client.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

ps: we are using cdp, cdh 7.1.7 and cm 7.6.1

Hi,

Here the VERSION CDP 7.1.7 we have to download the KUDU python client

Please follow the below document to get help

https://docs.cloudera.com/cdp-private-cloud-base/7.1.7/kudu-development/topics/kudu-python-client.ht...

If the client not found we can use  7.1.6 client

https://docs.cloudera.com/cdp-private-cloud-base/7.1.6/kudu-development/topics/kudu-python-client.ht...

Please confirm if we are getting the same error after the installation of kudu python client

hi @Samanta001 

unfortunately pyspark has no interaction with kudu

to interact with kudu (create, insert, delete) only works with scala or java api

for that you should use spark-shell
