Using Pycuda with PySpark - nvcc not found

My environment: I'm using Hortonworks HDP 2.4 with Spark 1.6.1 on a small AWS EC2 cluster of 4 g2.2xlarge instances with Ubuntu 14.04. Each instance has CUDA 7.5, Anaconda Python 3.5, and Pycuda 2016.1.1.

in /etc/bash.bashrc I've set:

CUDA_HOME=/usr/local/cuda
CUDA_ROOT=/usr/local/cuda
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/cuda/bin

On all 4 machines I can access nvcc from the command line for the ubuntu user, the root user, and the yarn user.

My problem: I have a Python-Pycuda project I've adapted to run on Spark. It runs great on my local Spark installation on my Mac, but when I run it on AWS I get:

FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'nvcc'

since it runs on my Mac in local mode, my guess is that it is a configuration issue with CUDA/Pycuda in the worker processes but I'm really stumped as to what it could be.

Any ideas?

Edit: Below is a stack trace from one of the jobs failing:

To close the loop on this, I finally worked my way through the problem.

Note: I know this is not really a good nor permanent answer for most people however in my case I am running POC code for my dissertation and as soon as I get some final results I'm decommissioning the servers. I doubt this answer will be suitable or appropriate for most users.

I ended up hardcoding the full path to nvcc into compile_plain() in Pycuda's compiler.py file.

Partial listing:

def compile_plain(source, options, keep, nvcc, cache_dir, target="cubin"):
    from os.path import join

    assert target in ["cubin", "ptx", "fatbin"]
    nvcc = '/usr/local/cuda/bin/'+nvcc
    if cache_dir:
        checksum = _new_md5()

Hopefully this points someone else in the proper direction.
