when i tried running Spark with ./Spark it returns this error:
root@[22]% ./Spark
Preparing JRE …
Error: Could not open jar file: lib/rt.jar
Error unpacking jar files. Aborting.
You might need administrative priviledges for this operation.
please help
A few questions: Where is your Spark installed to? Is it a remote filesystem? If local, what is the filesystem type? How much disk space do you have fee on that partition?
As a side note- its a bad idea to be doing normal user operations as root. You are just inviting yourself trouble. Use a non-priviledged user when possible.
my spark is currently on a network drive and there are lots of free space
But do you have permissions to write? If it is NFS, and you are root, is root_squash turned on (it is unless you specify no_root_squash on the server exports) you do not have permissions to write.
