Databricks Community Edition Cluster won't start

Question

I am trying to start a cluster that was terminated in a Community Edition. However, whenever I click on 'start' the cluster won't start. It would appear I have to create a new cluster everytime I want to work with Databrick clusters. Can someone confirm that is the case?

Answer 1

This seems to be the case with community edition. You need to create a new cluster every-time and run it. Even in the same session if your cluster stops due to inactivity or some other reason, you will need to create a new cluster.

Answer 2

Yes, I've faced the same problem with Databricks Community Edition clusters not starting.

My workaround has been to create a new cluster each time this issue occurs.
