Hi, I have tried to run basic streaming example ( https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.1.0/streaming-programming-guide.html)
I have established two ssh connections to the machine where spark is installed. In one terminal, I have started netcat with command nc -lk 9999 In other terminal I have run the command ./bin/run-example streaming.NetworkWordCount localhost 9999 I get the following error and haven't managed to diagnose the cause: 14/11/13 13:03:43 ERROR ReceiverTracker: Deregistered receiver for stream 0: Restarting receiver with delay 2000ms: Error connecting to localhost:9999 - java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused at java.net.PlainSocketImpl.socketConnect(Native Method) at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.doConnect(AbstractPlainSocketImpl.java:339) at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.connectToAddress(AbstractPlainSocketImpl.java:200) at java.net.AbstractPlainSocketImpl.connect(AbstractPlainSocketImpl.java:182) at java.net.SocksSocketImpl.connect(SocksSocketImpl.java:391) at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:579) at java.net.Socket.connect(Socket.java:528) at java.net.Socket.<init>(Socket.java:425) at java.net.Socket.<init>(Socket.java:208) at org.apache.spark.streaming.dstream.SocketReceiver.receive(SocketInputDStream.scala:71) at org.apache.spark.streaming.dstream.SocketReceiver$$anon$2.run(SocketInputDStream.scala:57) ------------------------------------------- Time: 1415880224000 ms ------------------------------------------- If anyone encountered the same problem and solved the issue, I would be very thankful if you could describe how to solve the problem or what could cause it. Best regards, Niko
