Spark Cluster, failed to connect to master. (WARN Worker: Failed to connect to master)

Question

I have a spark cluster with 2 nodes, master(172.17.0.229) and slave(172.17.0.228). I have edited spark-env.sh, added SPARK_MASTER_IP=127.17.0.229 and slaves, added 172.17.0.228.

I am starting my master node using start-master.sh and slave node using start-slaves.sh.

I can see the webUI with a master node with no worker, but the log of worker node is as:

Spark Command: /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/jre/bin/java -cp /usr/local/src/spark-1.5.2-bin-hadoop2.6/sbin/../conf/:/usr/local/src/spark-1.5.2-bin-hadoop$

Thanks for your suggestion.

Answer 1

Generally, checking the IP that your worker is trying to connect to against the reported spark://...:7077 address on the web UI at 172.17.0.229 port 8080 will help identify whether the address is correct.

In this particular case, it looks like you have a typo; change

SPARK_MASTER_IP=127.17.0.229

to read:

SPARK_MASTER_IP=172.17.0.229

(you seem to have 127/172 inverted).

Answer 2

My issue was a version mismatch between the spark java library I was using (2.0.0) and the version of the spark cluster (2.2.1)
