Just got stuck on trying to import a basic RDD dataset to DynamoDB. This is the code:
import org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobConf
var rdd = sc.parallelize(Array(("", Map("col1" -> Map("s" -> "abc"), "col2" -> Map("n" -> "123")))))
var jobConf = new JobConf(sc.hadoopConfiguration)
jobConf.set("dynamodb.output.tableName", "table_x")
jobConf.set("mapred.output.format.class", "org.apache.hadoop.dynamodb.write.DynamoDBOutputFormat")
rdd.saveAsHadoopDataset(jobConf)
And this is the error I get:
16/02/28 15:40:38 WARN TaskSetManager: Lost task 7.0 in stage 1.0 (TID 18, ip-172-31-9-224.eu-west-1.compute.internal): java.lang.ClassCastException: java.lang.String cannot be cast to org.apache.hadoop.io.Text

What can I do to fix this?
