Spark streaming, java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/spark/sql/avro/functions$

Question

i am trying to read data from kafka stream, that uses avro serialization for value. I have no problem reading data, and deserializing key that is string, but when i try to deserialise data using from_avro function i get exception

when running application using spark submit i also provide spark_sql_kafka_0-10, which i cannot provide from sbt since i get some other errors, this is not directly related to this problem, but if someone knows what could be the reason for this feel free to answer to that also.

spark-submit --packages org.apache.spark:spark-sql-kafka-0-10_2.12:3.3.0 --class DataFrameExample --master local target/scala-2.12/test_2.12-1.jar

Sorry if this is duplicate but i have looked at every answer o so and other places when searching for similar errors. Tnx

Answer 1

As documented, add the package on command line. Ensure version values are correct.

spark-submit --packages "org.apache.spark:spark-avro_2.12:3.3.0,org.apache.spark:spark-sql-kafka-0-10_2.12:3.3.0" \
             --class DataFrameExample \
             --master local target/scala-2.12/test_2.12-1.jar
