Hey everyone, I am currently trying to run the hortonworks sandbox 3.0.1. I have installed it on VMware with 22GB of ram allocated and 2 processor cores set, as I cannot enable more than that. However, I have been facing a myriad of issues in this kind of install, ranging from servers such as YARN, HIVE and SPARK refusing to start fully. I am incredibly frustrated with my experience with Hortonworks Sandbox. Any help is appreciated. All I want to do is to complete this guide, https://www.cloudera.com/tutorials/using-hive-with-orc-in-apache-spark-repl.html. I just cannot get spark-shell started. ... View more

I have ensured that YARN server is running, but to no avail. Any help is appreciated. ... View more
