Spark User commented on SPARK-5594:
---
In my case, this issue was happening when spark context doesn't close
successfully. When spark context closes abruptly, the files in spark-local and
spark-worker directories are left uncleaned. The next time any job is run, the
broadcast exception occurs. I managed a workaround by redirecting spark-worker
and spark-local outputs to specific folders and cleaning them up in case the
spark context doesn't close successfully.

> I am uncertain whether this is a bug, however I am getting the error below
