ok, so I applied a few patches https://github.com/quantifind/incubator-spark/pull/1/files

I think my logging configuration is not getting applied correctly, or "log-sent-messages" & "log-received-messages" don't do what I think they do ... something conflicting must be turing that logging off. There are a zillion different remoting settings: http://doc.akka.io/docs/akka/snapshot/scala/remoting.html I feel like I really need to get those messages on why it disconnected to know which ones to play with. Any ideas for config changes to see those messages? thanks On Wed, Oct 30, 2013 at 10:09 AM, Prashant Sharma <[email protected]>wrote: > Can you apply this patch too and check the logs of Driver and worker. > > diff --git > a/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/scheduler/cluster/StandaloneSchedulerBackend.scala > b/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/scheduler/cluster/StandaloneSchedulerBackend.scala > index b6f0ec9..ad0ebf7 100644 > --- > a/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/scheduler/cluster/StandaloneSchedulerBackend.scala > +++ > b/core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/scheduler/cluster/StandaloneSchedulerBackend.scala > @@ -132,7 +132,7 @@ class StandaloneSchedulerBackend(scheduler: > ClusterScheduler, actorSystem: Actor > // Remove a disconnected slave from the cluster > def removeExecutor(executorId: String, reason: String) { > if (executorActor.contains(executorId)) { > - logInfo("Executor " + executorId + " disconnected, so removing > it") > + logInfo("Executor " + executorId + " disconnected, so removing > it, reason:" + reason) > val numCores = freeCores(executorId) > actorToExecutorId -= executorActor(executorId) > addressToExecutorId -= executorAddress(executorId) > > > > > On Wed, Oct 30, 2013 at 8:18 PM, Imran Rashid <[email protected]>wrote: > >> I just realized something about the failing stages -- they generally >> occur in steps like this: >> >> rdd.mapPartitions{itr => >> val myCounters = initializeSomeDataStructure() >> itr.foreach{ >> //update myCounter in here >> ... >> } >> >> myCounters.iterator.map{ >> //some other transformation here ... >> } >> } >> >> that is, as a partition is processed, nothing gets output, we just >> accumulate some values.
