Spark 3.0.0 创建 SparkSession 时出错：pyspark.sql.utils.IllegalArgumentException：<exception str() failed></exception>

Question

I'm trying to build Spark 3.0.0 for my Yarn cluster, with Hadoop 2.7.3 and Hive 1.2.1. I downloaded the source and created a runnable dist with

./dev/make-distribution.sh --name custom-spark --pip --r --tgz -Psparkr -Phive-1.2 -Phadoop-2.7 -Pyarn

We're running Spark 2.4.0 in production so I copied the hive-site.xml, spark-env.sh and spark-defaults.conf from there.

When I try to create a SparkSession in a normal Python REPL, I get the following uninformative error. How can I debug this? I can run the spark-shell and get to a scala prompt with Hive access seemingly without error.

pyspark.sql.utils.IllegalArgumentException: <exception str() failed>

Answer 1

I also encountered pyspark.sql.utils.IllegalArgumentException: <exception str() failed> . It was caused on my side by using an option removed in Spark 3 ( spark.sql.legacy.allowCreatingManagedTableUsingNonemptyLocation ).
