Spark Streaming: Broadcast variables, java.lang.ClassCastException


I try to read data from a static textfile stored in HDFS, store its content into an ArrayBuffer which in turn should be broadcasted via sparkContext.broadcast as a BroadcastVariable. I am using cloudera's spark, spark version 1.6.0-cdh5.7.0 and spark-streaming_2.10.

I start the application on yarn using spark-submit:

spark-submit --class my.package.BroadcastStreamTest1 --master yarn --deploy-mode client --conf spark.executor.userClassPathFirst=true current.jar

When I do this, I get an java.lang.ClassCastException: cannot assign instance of scala.Some to field org.apache.spark.Accumulable.name of type scala.Option in instance of org.apache.spark.Accumulator The same code used with a hard coded ArrayBuffer work perfectly so I assume it has something to do with the static file resource... Does anyone have an idea what I am possibly doing wrong? Any help appreciated.

This does not work:


    object BroadcastStreamTest1 {

        def main(args: Array[String]) {
            val sparkConf = new SparkConf()
            val streamingContext = new StreamingContext(sparkConf, batchDuration = Seconds(10))

            val content = streamingContext.sparkContext
                .textFile("hdfs:///data/someTextFile.txt")
                .collect()
                .toBuffer[String]

            val broadCastVar = streamingContext.sparkContext.broadcast(content)
            broadCastVar.value.foreach(line => println(line))

            streamingContext.start()
            streamingContext.awaitTermination()
        }
    }

This works:


    object BroadcastStreamTest2 {

        def main(args: Array[String]) {
            val sparkConf = new SparkConf()
            val streamingContext = new StreamingContext(sparkConf, batchDuration = Seconds(10))

            val content = new mutable.ArrayBuffer[String]
            (1 to 50).foreach(i => content += "line" + i)

            val broadCastVar = streamingContext.sparkContext.broadcast(content)
            broadCastVar.value.foreach(line => println(line))

            streamingContext.start()
            streamingContext.awaitTermination()
        }
    }

How do I get broadcast variable in spark?

The variable "power" is declared as BroadCast Variable by using the broadcast() function. Spark automatically broadcasts the common data needed by tasks within each stage. The data broadcasted this way is cached in serialized form and deserialized before running each task.

What is broadcast variable in spark?

Broadcast variables allow the programmer to keep a read-only variable cached on each machine rather than shipping a copy of it with tasks. They can be used, for example, to give every node a copy of a large input dataset in an efficient manner.

Can we change broadcast variable in spark?

Every time you need to call update function to get new broadcast variable.

What are accumulators and broadcast variables in spark?

Spark supports two types of shared variables: broadcast variables, which can be used to cache a value in memory on all nodes, and accumulators, which are variables that are only “added” to, such as counters and sums. This guide shows each of these features in each of Spark's supported languages.

The reason was some kind of conflict with my provided jar file.

Without setting

spark.executor.userClassPathFirst=true

it works, unfortunately I could not locate the exact cause of the problem.
