Question

I am using Spark 1.2.1,Hbase 0.98.10 and Hadoop 2.6.0. I got a null point exception while retrieve data form hbase. Find stack trace below.

Please provide me solution for this problem.

Answer 1

The Exception is thrown in the getPreferredLocations phase so without more information about your hbase ConfigurationI suggest you look at the hbase.table.name and the hbase.master (this last one i do not if the correct to define the HMaster) are configured as you want
