Exception in thread "main" org.apache.spark.SparkException: Must specify the driver container image

Question

I am trying to do spark-submit on minikube(Kubernetes) from local machine CLI with command

spark-submit --master k8s://https://127.0.0.1:8001 --name cfe2 
--deploy-mode cluster --class com.yyy.Test --conf spark.executor.instances=2 --conf spark.kubernetes.container.image docker.io/anantpukale/spark_app:1.1 local://spark-0.0.1-SNAPSHOT.jar

I have a simple spark job jar built on verison 2.3.0. I also have containerized it in docker and minikube up and running on virtual box. Below is exception stack:

Look like bug with default value for parameters spark.kubernetes.driver.container.image, that must be spark.kubernetes.container.image. So try specify driver/executor container image directly:

• spark.kubernetes.driver.container.image
• spark.kubernetes.executor.container.image
