Spark Installation problem

Question

I've downloaded Spark, and unzipped and used the cd command to bin directory but it's showing an error on invoking.

[edureka@localhost ~]$ cd /home/edureka/Downloads/spark-2.4.0-bin-hadoop2.7/bin/[edureka@localhost bin]$ spark-shell
bash: spark-shell: command not found

Answer 1

After downloading Spark, you need to set the path for SPARK_HOME in the .bashrc file. Execute the below command to open the .bashrc file,

vi ~/.bashrc

After this hit the insert button on your keyboard to edit the .bashrc file. Now, set the SPARK_HOME path as below,

SPARK_HOME=<enter the spark directory path here> 
export PATH=$SPARK_HOME/bin:$PATH

After this, source the .bashrc file with the below command,

source ~/.bashrc

Now, everything is set up. You can run the spark shell now.
