Hi Borja, Thanks for sharing the issue. I could reproduce the problem. So far, you can use %dep in the notebook instead of --packages in zeppelin-env.sh as a workaround.
%dep z.reset() z.load("org.apache.spark:spark-streaming-kafka_2.10:1.5.1") %pyspark from pyspark.streaming.kafka import KafkaUtils from pyspark.streaming import StreamingContext ssc = StreamingContext(sc, ...) kafkaStream = KafkaUtils.createStream(ssc, ...) will work. I'll take a look why --packages does not work in pyspark.
