On a Centos machine, Python v2.6.6, and Apache Spark v1.2.1

Getting the following error while trying to execute. / pyspark

It seems to be a problem with python but unable to understand

From the logs, it seems that pyspark cannot understand the localhost host . Please check the file / etc / hosts, if localhost is not available, add it should solve this problem.

eg:

[Ip] [Hostname] localhost

If you cannot change the server host edit / python / pyspark / accumulators.py line number 269 below

server = AccumulatorServer (("[server host name from hosts file", 0), _UpdateRequestHandler)
