What instance types did you launch on? Sometimes you also get a bad individual machine from EC2. It might help to remove the node it’s complaining about from the conf/slaves file. Matei On May 30, 2014, at 11:18 AM, PJ$ wrote: > Hey Folks, > > I'm really having quite a bit of trouble gettin

Hey Folks, I'm really having quite a bit of trouble getting spark running on ec2. I'm not using scripts the https://github.com/apache/spark/tree/master/ec2 because I'd like to know how everything works. But I'm going a little crazy. I think that something about the networking configuration must be
