Spark EC-2 deployment error: Exiting due to error from cluster scheduler: All masters are unresponsive! Giving up - amazon-ec2

I have a question in regard to deploying a spark application on a standalone EC-2 Cluster. I have followed the tutorial by Spark ans was able to successfully deploy a standalone EC-2 cluster. I verified that by connecting to the clusrer UI and making sure that everything is as it supposed to be. I developed a simple application and tested it locally. Everything works fine. When I submit it to the cluster (just changing --master local[4] into --masers spark://.... ) I get the following error: ERROR TaskSchedulerImpl: Exiting due to error from cluster scheduler: All masters are unresponsive! Giving up. Does any one know how to overcome this problem. my deploy-mode is client.

Make sure that you have provided the correct url to the master.
Basically, the exact spark master URL is displayed on the page when you connected to the Web UI.
URL on the page is something like: Spark Master at spark://IPAddress:port
Also you may notice that web UI and the Spark running port numbers may be different

HDP 2.5: Spark History Server UI won't show incomplete applications

I set-up a new Hadoop Cluster with Hortonworks Data Platform 2.5. In the "old" cluster (installed HDP 2.4) I was able to see the information about running Spark jobs via the History Server UI by clicking the link show incomplete applications:
Within the new installation this link opens the page, but it always sais No incomplete applications found! (when there's still an application running).
I just saw, that the YARN ResourceManager UI shows two different kind of links in the "Tracking UI" column, dependent on the status of the Spark application:
application running: Application Master
this link opens http://master_url:8088/proxy/application_1480327991583_0010/
application finished: History
this link opens http://master_url:18080/history/application_1480327991583_0009/jobs/
Via the YARN RM link I can see the running Spark app infos, but why can't I access them via Spark History Server UI? Was there somethings changed from HDP 2.4 to 2.5?
I solved it, it was a network problem: Some of the cluster hosts (Spark slaves) couldn't reach each other due to a incorrect switch configuration. Found it out, as I tried to ping each host from each other.
Since all hosts can ping each other hosts the problem is gone and I can see active and finished jobs in my Spark History server UI again!
I didn't noticed the problem, because the ambari-agents worked on each host, and the ambari-server was also reachable from each cluster host! However, since ALL hosts can reach each other the problem is solved!

Make spark environment for cluster

I made a spark application that analyze file data. Since input file data size could be big, It's not enough to run my application as standalone. With one more physical machine, how should I make architecture for it?
I'm considering using mesos for cluster manager but pretty noobie at hdfs. Is there any way to make it without hdfs (for sharing file data)?
Spark maintain couple cluster modes. Yarn, Mesos and Standalone. You may start with the Standalone mode which means you work on your cluster file-system.
If you are running on Amazon EC2, you may refer to the following article in order to use Spark built-in scripts that loads Spark cluster automatically.
If you are running on an on-prem environment, the way to run in Standalone mode is as follows:
-Start a standalone master
./sbin/start-master.sh
-The master will print out a spark://HOST:PORT URL for itself. For each worker (machine) on your cluster use the URL in the following command:
./sbin/start-slave.sh <master-spark-URL>
-In order to validate that the worker was added to the cluster, you may refer to the following URL: http://localhost:8080 on your master machine and get Spark UI that shows more info about the cluster and its workers.
There are many more parameters to play with. For more info, please refer to this documentation
Hope I have managed to help! :)

JobTracker web UI - not working in psedo-distributed mode v 2.7.1

I have installed Hadoop 2.7.1 in psuedo distributed mode (all daemons on single machine). It's up and running and I'm able to access HDFS through command line and run the jobs and I'm able to see the output.
I can access http://localhost:50070/dfshealth.html#tab-overview. it shows version and cluster status and can access hadoop file system.
I found one link and applied its accepted solution but that does not work for me. When I am trying to access http://127.0.0.1:54310, I am getting below error message
It looks like you are making an HTTP request to a Hadoop IPC port. This is
not the correct port for the web interface on this daemon.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks..
I am using MR2 and not able to track my job on 8088. When I run map reduce job, it submit the job on http://localhost:8080 and thats url is not opening to track the job.
Use port 50030 if you are using MRV1 for YARN use port 8088 for accessing resource manager.

Submitting jobs to Spark EC2 cluster remotely

I've set up the EC2 cluster with Spark. Everything works, all master/slaves are up and running.
I'm trying to submit a sample job (SparkPi). When I ssh to cluster and submit it from there - everything works fine. However when driver is created on a remote host (my laptop), it doesn't work. I've tried both modes for --deploy-mode:
--deploy-mode=client:
From my laptop:
./bin/spark-submit --master spark://ec2-52-10-82-218.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:7077 --class SparkPi ec2test/target/scala-2.10/ec2test_2.10-0.0.1.jar
Results in the following indefinite warnings/errors:
WARN TaskSchedulerImpl: Initial job has not accepted any resources;
check your cluster UI to ensure that workers are registered and have
sufficient memory 15/02/22 18:30:45
ERROR SparkDeploySchedulerBackend: Asked to remove non-existent executor 0 15/02/22 18:30:45
ERROR SparkDeploySchedulerBackend: Asked to remove non-existent executor 1
...and failed drivers - in Spark Web UI "Completed Drivers" with "State=ERROR" appear.
I've tried to pass limits for cores and memory to submit script but it didn't help...
--deploy-mode=cluster:
From my laptop:
./bin/spark-submit --master spark://ec2-52-10-82-218.us-west-2.compute.amazonaws.com:7077 --deploy-mode cluster --class SparkPi ec2test/target/scala-2.10/ec2test_2.10-0.0.1.jar
The result is:

So, I'd appreciate any pointers on what is going wrong and some guidance how to deploy jobs from remote client. Thanks.
UPDATE:
So for the second issue in cluster mode, the file must be globally visible by each cluster node, so it has to be somewhere in accessible location. This solve IOException but leads to the same issue as in the client mode.
The documentation at:
http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/security.html#configuring-ports-for-network-security
lists all the different communication channels used in a Spark cluster. As you can see, there are a bunch where the connection is made from the Executor(s) to the Driver. When you run with --deploy-mode=client, the driver runs on your laptop, so the executors will try to make a connection to your laptop. If the AWS security group that your executors run under blocks outbound traffic to your laptop (which the default security group created by the Spark EC2 scripts doesn't), or you are behind a router/firewall (more likely), they fail to connect and you get the errors you are seeing.
So to resolve it, you have to forward all the necessary ports to your laptop, or reconfigure your firewall to allow connection to the ports. Seeing as a bunch of the ports are chosen at random, this means opening up a wide range of, if not all ports. So probably using --deploy-mode=cluster, or client from the cluster, is less painful.
I advise against submitting spark jobs remotely using the port opening strategy, because it can create security problems and is in my experience, more trouble than it's worth, especially due to having to troubleshoot the communication layer.

I am not sure whether the application is running on just the master or the whole cluster for Spark on EC2

I am using Spark 1.1.1 . I followed the instructions given on https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.1.1/ec2-scripts.html and have a cluster of 1 master node and 1 worker on EC2 running.
I have made a jar of the application and rsynced it to the slaves. When I run the application using spark-submit with the deploy-mode of client, the application works. However, when I do so using deploy-mode cluster it gives me an error saying it cannot find the jar on the worker. The permission of the jar is 755 on both the master and worker.
I am not sure whether when I run the application using deploy-mode=client whether the application is using the workers. I don't think it is since the worker url does not show any completed jobs. But it does show failed jobs during deploy-mode=cluster.
Am I doing something wrong? Thank you for your help.
You can check if executors are assigned to the application on the /executors page on port 4040 (e.g. http://localhost:4040/executors/). If you only see <driver> then you are not using the worker. If you see one line for <driver> and one other line (with ID 0, unless it has restarted), then the worker is also providing an executor to your application. Here you can also see how many tasks it has completed for your application, and other stats.
