Brendan Dwyer commented on SPARK-18817:
---------------------------------------
I'm also seeing _derby.log_ and a folder named _metastore_db_ being created in
my working directory when I run the following:
{code}
library("SparkR")
sparkR.session()
df <- as.DataFrame(iris)
{code}
> Ensure nothing is written outside R's tempdir() by default

> Key: SPARK-18817
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-18817
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: SparkR
> Reporter: Brendan Dwyer
> Priority: Critical
>
> Per CRAN policies
> https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html
> {quote}
> - Packages should not write in the users’ home filespace, nor anywhere else
> on the file system apart from the R session’s temporary directory (or during
> installation in the location pointed to by TMPDIR: and such usage should be
> cleaned up). Installing into the system’s R installation (e.g., scripts to
> its bin directory) is not allowed.
> Limited exceptions may be allowed in interactive sessions if the package
> obtains confirmation from the user.
> - Packages should not modify the global environment (user’s workspace).
> {quote}
> Currently "spark-warehouse" gets created in the working directory when
> sparkR.session() is called.
