"sparkContext was shut down" while running spark on a large dataset
Solution 1
Found the answer.
The my table was saved as a 20gb avro file. When executors tried to open it. Each of them had to load 20gb into memory. Solved it by using csv instead of avro
Solution 2
Symptoms are typical of a OutOfMemory error in one the executor tasks. Try augmenting memory for executor when lauching job. See parameter --executor-memory of spark-submit, spark-shell etc. Default value is 1G
Solution 3
Another possible cause of the "SparkContext is shutdown" error is that you are importing a jar file after evaluating some other code. (This may only happen in Spark Notebook.)
To fix the problem, move all your :cp myjar.jar
statements to the start of your file.

When running sparkJob on a cluster past a certain data size(~2,5gb) I am getting either "Job cancelled because SparkContext was shut down" or "executor lost". When looking at yarn gui I see that job that got killed was successful. There are no problems when running on data that is 500mb. I was looking for a solution and found that: - "seems yarn kills some of the executors as they request more memory than expected."
Any suggestions how to debug it?
command that I submit my spark job with:
/opt/spark-1.5.0-bin-hadoop2.4/bin/spark-submit --driver-memory 22g --driver-cores 4 --num-executors 15 --executor-memory 6g --executor-cores 6 --class sparkTesting.Runner --master yarn-client myJar.jar jarArguments
and sparkContext settings
val sparkConf = (new SparkConf() .set("spark.driver.maxResultSize", "21g") .set("spark.akka.frameSize", "2011") .set("spark.eventLog.enabled", "true") .set("spark.eventLog.enabled", "true") .set("spark.eventLog.dir", configVar.sparkLogDir) )
Simplified code that fails looks like that
val hc = new org.apache.spark.sql.hive.HiveContext(sc) val broadcastParser = sc.broadcast(new Parser()) val featuresRdd = hc.sql("select "+ configVar.columnName + " from " + configVar.Table +" ORDER BY RAND() LIMIT " + configVar.Articles) val myRdd : org.apache.spark.rdd.RDD[String] = featuresRdd.map(doSomething(_,broadcastParser)) val allWords= featuresRdd .flatMap(line => line.split(" ")) .count val wordQuantiles= featuresRdd .flatMap(line => line.split(" ")) .map(word => (word, 1)) .reduceByKey(_ + _) .map(pair => (pair._2 , pair._2)) .reduceByKey(_+_) .sortBy(_._1) .collect .scanLeft((0,0.0)) ( (res,add) => (add._1, res._2+add._2) ) .map(entry => (entry._1,entry._2/allWords)) val dictionary = featuresRdd .flatMap(line => line.split(" ")) .map(word => (word, 1)) .reduceByKey(_ + _) // here I have Rdd of word,count tuples .filter(_._2 >= moreThan) .filter(_._2 <= lessThan) .filter(_._1.trim!=("")) .map(_._1) .zipWithIndex .collect .toMap
And Error stack
