spark scala on windows machine - scala

Question

I am learning from the class. I have run the code as shown in the class and i get below errors. Any idea what i should do?
I have spark 1.6.1 and Scala version 2.10.5 (Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM, Java 1.8.0_74)
val datadir = "C:/Personal/V2Maestros/Courses/Big Data Analytics with Spark/Scala"
//............................................................................
//// Building and saving the model
//............................................................................
val tweetData = sc.textFile(datadir + "/movietweets.csv")
tweetData.collect()
def convertToRDD(inStr : String) : (Double,String) = {
val attList = inStr.split(",")
val sentiment = attList(0).contains("positive") match {
case true => 0.0
case false => 1.0
}
return (sentiment, attList(1))
}
val tweetText=tweetData.map(convertToRDD)
tweetText.collect()
//val sqlContext = new org.apache.spark.sql.SQLContext(sc)
import sqlContext.implicits._
var ttDF = sqlContext.createDataFrame(tweetText).toDF("label","text")
ttDF.show()
The error is:
scala> ttDF.show()

Answer 1

I'm no expert but the connection IP in the error message looks like a private node or even your router/modem local address.
As stated in the comment it could be that you're running the context with a wrong configuration that tries to spread the work to a cluster that's not there, instead of in your local jvm process.
For further information you can read here and experiment with something like
import org.apache.spark.SparkContext
val sc = new SparkContext(master = "local[4]", appName = "tweetsClass", conf = new SparkConf)
Update
Since you're using the interactive shell and the provided SparkContext available there, I guess you should pass the equivalent parameters to the shell command as in
<your-spark-path>/bin/spark-shell --master local[4]
Which instructs the driver to assign a master for the spark cluster on the local machine, on 4 threads.

Answer 2

I think the problem comes with connectivity and not from within the code.
Check if you can actually connect to this address and port (54595).

Answer 3

Probably your spark master is not accessible at the specified port. Use local[*] to validate using a smaller dataset and local master. Then, ckeck if the port is accessible or change it based on Spark port configuration (http://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/configuration.html)
