I'm trying to initialize SparkR but I'm getting a permissions error. My Spark Version is spark-2.2.1-bin-hadoop2.6. I have searched for this error and how to solve it and I have found several related topics. However, I'm not able to solve it using the same approach that in those topics, the solution they give (and the one I tried) is giving permisions to the /tmp/hive directory using the following command:
sudo -u hdfs hadoop fs -chmod -R 777 /tmp/hive
Can anyone with enough knowledge give me another possible solution?
The error stacktrace is the following one:
$ sudo ./bin/sparkR

Thanks you so much in advance!!!
Since your error permissions do not match the output of the file system, sounds like you downloaded Spark but didn't configure it, therefore it's defaulting to local disk
First, try using spark-shell alone from CDH installation to run a smoketest.
I think Cloudera includes SparkR (they just don't officially support it). I don't see a reason why they would remove it from the installation.
My Spark Version is spark-2.2.1-bin-hadoop2.6.
You downloaded the version that includes hadoop (based on the end of the filename). Since you say you set it up on your cluster, you should use the download option without precompiled Hadoop. And unless it's actually a Cloudera parcel, don't place it in that /opt/cloudera/parcels directory.
Then, once you have that, extract it somewhere, and open conf/spark-env.sh (copy the template to this file)
Update the values to at least contain the same information as the other Spark installation that come with CDH
Ensure HADOOP_CONF_DIR points at the configuration directory of Hadoop on your system. /etc/hadoop/conf/
