title: Use Apache Zeppelin with existing Spark Cluster
body: <p>I want to install Zeppelin to use my existing Spark cluster. I used the following way:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Spark Master (Spark 1.5.0 for Hadoop 2.4):
  
  <ul>
  <li>Zeppelin 0.5.5</li>
  </ul></li>
  <li>Spark Slave</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>I downladed the Zeppelin v0.5.5 and installed it via:</p>
  
  <pre><code>mvn clean package -Pspark-1.5 -Dspark.version=1.5.0 -Dhadoop.version=2.4.0 -Phadoop-2.4 -DskipTests
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I saw, that the <strong>local[*]</strong> master setting works also without my Spark Cluster (notebook also runnable when shutted down the Spark cluster).</p>
  
  <p>My problem: When I want to use my Spark Cluster for a Streaming application, it seems not to work correctly. My SQL-Table is empty when I use <strong>spark://my_server:7077</strong> as master - in local mode everything works fine! </p>
  
  <p>See also my other question which describes the problem: <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34296894/apache-zeppelin-spark-streaming-twitter-example-only-works-local">Apache Zeppelin &amp; Spark Streaming: Twitter Example only works local</a></p>
  
  <p>Did I something wrong</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>on installation via "mvn clean packge"?</li>
  <li>on setting the master url?</li>
  <li>Spark and/or Hadoop version (any limitations???)</li>
  <li>Do I have to set something special in zeppelin-env.sh file (is actually back on defaults)???</li>
  </ul>
