You will have problems starting spark-shell with any master because there are permissioning issues with the hdfs folders that spark uses.

 

To fix it do the following:

 

sudo -u hdfs hadoop fs -chmod 777 /user/spark
sudo -u spark hadoop fs -chmod 777 /user/spark/applicationHistory

 

That should do it 🙂
