[SOLVED] Can't find spark submit when typing spark-shell

Issue

I've been following this tutorial to install spark for scala: rel="noreferrer">https://www.tutorialspoint.com/apache_spark/apache_spark_installation.htm

However, When I try to run spark-shell I receive this error in my console.

/usr/local/spark/bin/spark-shell: line 57: /usr/local/spark/bin/bin/spark-submit: No such file or directory

My bashrc looks like this:

export PATH = $PATH:/usr/local/spark/bin
export SCALA_HOME=/usr/local/scala/bin
export PYTHONPATH=$SPARK_HOME/python

So what am I getting wrong? I've installed spark for python before but now I'm trying to use scala. Is spark confusing the variables? Thanks.

Solution

You have one bin too many in the path it's searching:

/usr/local/spark/bin/bin/spark-submit

should be

/usr/local/spark/bin/spark-submit

The SPARK_HOME should be /usr/local/spark/ in your case, not /usr/local/spark/bin/ as it seems to be the case now.
