Andrew Or updated SPARK-1911:
-----------------------------

    Description: 
The root cause of the problem is detailed in: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-1520.

In short, an assembly jar built with Java 7+ is not always accessible by Python 
or other versions of Java (especially Java 6). If the assembly jar is not built 
on the cluster itself, this problem may manifest itself in strange exceptions 
that are not trivial to debug.

Currently we warn users only in make-distribution.sh, but most users build the 
jars directly. We should emphasize it in the docs especially for PySpark and 
YARN because this issue is not trivial to debug.
