Spark runs on Yarn cluster exitCode=13:

I am a spark/yarn newbie, run into exitCode=13 when I submit a spark job on yarn cluster. When the spark job is running in local mode, everything is fine.

The command I used is:

/usr/hdp/current/spark-client/bin/spark-submit --class com.test.sparkTest --master yarn --deploy-mode cluster --num-executors 40 --executor-cores 4 --driver-memory 17g --executor-memory 22g --files /usr/hdp/current/spark-client/conf/hive-site.xml /home/user/sparkTest.jar*

Spark Error Log:

It seems that you have set the master in your code to be local

SparkConf.setMaster("local[*]")

You have to let the master unset in the code, and set it later by when you issue spark-submit

spark-submit --master yarn-client ...
