Error when building docker image for jupyter spark notebook - docker

Question

I am trying to build Jupyter notebook in docker following the guide here:
https://github.com/cordon-thiago/airflow-spark
and got an error with exit code: 8.
I ran:
$ docker build --rm --force-rm -t jupyter/pyspark-notebook:3.0.1 .
the building stops at the code:
RUN wget -q $(wget -qO- https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/spark/spark-${APACHE_SPARK_VERSION}/spark-${APACHE_SPARK_VERSION}-bin-hadoop${HADOOP_VERSION}.tgz\?as_json | \
python -c "import sys, json; content=json.load(sys.stdin); print(content['preferred']+content['path_info'])") && \
echo "${spark_checksum} *spark-${APACHE_SPARK_VERSION}-bin-hadoop${HADOOP_VERSION}.tgz" | sha512sum -c - && \
tar xzf "spark-${APACHE_SPARK_VERSION}-bin-hadoop${HADOOP_VERSION}.tgz" -C /usr/local --owner root --group root --no-same-owner && \
rm "spark-${APACHE_SPARK_VERSION}-bin-hadoop${HADOOP_VERSION}.tgz"
with error message like below:
=> ERROR [4/9] RUN wget -q $(wget -qO- https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/spark/spark-3.0.1/spark-3.0.1-bin-hadoop2.7.tgz?as_json | python -c "import sys, json; content=json.load(sys.stdin); 2.3s

Really appreciate if someone can enlighten me on this. Thanks!

Answer 1

The exit code 8 is likely from wget meaning an error response from the server. As an example, this path that the Dockerfile tries to wget from isn't valid anymore: https://www.apache.org/dyn/closer.lua/spark/spark-3.0.1/spark-3.0.1-bin-hadoop2.7.tgz
From the issues on the repo, it appears that Apache version 3.0.1 is no longer valid so you should override the APACHE_SPARK version to 3.0.2 with a --build-arg:
docker build --rm --force-rm \
--build-arg spark_version=3.0.2 \
-t jupyter/pyspark-notebook:3.0.2 .
EDIT
See comment below for more, the command that worked was:
docker build --rm --force-rm \
--build-arg spark_version=3.1.1 \
--build-arg hadoop_version=2.7 \
-t jupyter/pyspark-notebook:3.1.1 .
And updated spark checksum to reflect the version for 3.1.1: https://downloads.apache.org/spark/spark-3.1.1/spark-3.1.1-bin-hadoop2.7.tgz.sha512
For this answer to be relevant in the future, it will likely need to update versions and checksum again for the latest spark/hadoop versions.
