Answer 1

Make sure the URL for the master is correct, and that the master is still alive.

You can check what the correct URL should be by going to the spark web UI in your browser. If you are running the master locally try typing localhost:8080 into any browser window.

Here is more about the web UI https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.2.0/monitoring.html
