Hi, Using spark sql with HiveContext. Spark version is 1.3.1 When running local spark everything works fine. When running on spark cluster I get ClassNotFoundError org.apache.hadoop.hive.shims.Hadoop23Shims. This class belongs to hive-shims-0.23, and is a runtime dependency for spark-hive:
[INFO] org.apache.spark:spark-hive_2.10:jar:1.3.1 [INFO] +- org.spark-project.hive:hive-metastore:jar:0.13.1a:compile [INFO] | +- org.spark-project.hive:hive-shims:jar:0.13.1a:compile [INFO] | | +- org.spark-project.hive.shims:hive-shims-common:jar:0.13.1a:compile [INFO] | | +- org.spark-project.hive.shims:hive-shims-0.20:jar:0.13.1a:runtime [INFO] | | +- org.spark-project.hive.shims:hive-shims-common-secure:jar:0.13.1a:compile [INFO] | | +- org.spark-project.hive.shims:hive-shims-0.20S:jar:0.13.1a:runtime [INFO] | | \- org.spark-project.hive.shims:hive-shims-0.23:jar:0.13.1a:runtime My spark distribution is: make-distribution.sh --tgz -Phive -Phive-thriftserver -DskipTests If I try to add this dependency to my driver project, then the exception disappears, but then the task is stuck when registering an rdd as a table (I get timeout after 30 seconds). I should emphasize that the first rdd I register as a table is a very small one (about 60K row), and as I said - it runs swiftly in local. I suspect maybe other dependencies are missing, but they fail silently. Would be grateful if anyone knows how to solve it. Lior
