Known Issues and Limitations

  • The Installer can install Airflow, but cannot set up Postgre or MySQL as the backend database for Airflow. The default Airflow database is SQLite.
  • Apache PySpark has a lot of CVEs, and was removed from default Airflow dependencies. For installation, follow the instructions.
    To use Spark JDBC operator/hook from Apache provider, install pyspark. Perform the following steps:
    1. Run <airflow_home>/build/env/bin/activate
    2. Run pip install pyspark==3.5.5
    3. Run deactivate
    NOTE
    This doesn't affect Ezmeral Spark provider.
  • If repair_pip_depends.sh script failed with following error, need to execute script again: 
    subprocess.CalledProcessError: Command 'krb5-config --libs gssapi' returned non-zero exit 		 status 127.
