Error trying to install/run Spark 1.1.4 Linux/Unix version

I’'ve tried installing/running the Spark client on Solaris and Mac (since mac is unix under the hood) and I receive similar error messages when I try and run ./Spark

On Solaris:

$ ./Spark

Preparing JRE …

bin/unpack200: syntax error at line 1: `(’’ unexpected

Error unpacking jar files. Aborting.

You might need administrative priviledges for this operation.

On Mac/Unix:

lardo:/Users/lardo/Desktop/Spark$ ./Spark

Preparing JRE …

./Spark: line 142: bin/unpack200: cannot execute binary file

Error unpacking jar files. Aborting.

You might need administrative priviledges for this operation.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks for any suggestions…

Hi Billy,

On the mac you can use the spark*.dmg file. This works just fine. As for Solaris, we are making a specific build without system tie-ins, since this is causing the issue. Please stay tuned for the upcoming release.

Cheers,

Derek

Sweet, hope everything is progressing smoothly on the Solaris Spark.
