Apache Spark reassigned SPARK-12699:
------------------------------------
Assignee: Apache Spark
> R driver process should start in a clean state
> ----------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-12699
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-12699
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: SparkR
> Reporter: Felix Cheung
> Assignee: Apache Spark
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently we have R worker process launched with the --vanilla option that
> brings it up in a clean state (without init profile or workspace data,
> https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/Startup.html).
> However, the R process for the Spark driver is not.
> We should do that because
> 1. That would make driver consistent with the worker process in R - for
> instance, a library would not be load in driver but not worker
> 2. Since SparkR depends on .libPath and .First() it could be broken by
> something in the user workspace, for example
> Here are the changes proposed:
> 1. When starting `sparkR` shell (except: allow save/restore workspace, since
> the driver/shell is local)
> 2. When launching R driver in cluster mode
> 3. In cluster mode, when calling R to install shipped R package
