Not Able to create Cluster on Community Edition for 3-4 days.

[Dileep_Vidyadar]

I am learning Pyspark on Community edition for a like month. It's been great until I am facing issues while creating a cluster for 3-4 Days.

Sometimes it is taking 30 minutes to 60 minutes to create a Cluster and sometimes it is not even creating a Cluster and it interrupts my learning.

If anyone knows anything about the issue I am facing or If you have faced the same kind of issue, please kindly let me know.

Thanks for your quick response, @Hubert Dudek​ . Currently, It is running after waiting for 14 minutes.

The earlier cluster used to create in 2-5 minutes but in recent days it is taking 15-30 minutes for creating a cluster on Community Edition. (Please find the attached screenshot below)

The day before yesterday it took 45 minutes to create a Cluster, I wish I could have that screenshot but sadly I deleted the cluster after the use 😕

Hi @Dileep Vidyadara​ ,

Did you check the status page for any outages or issues related to CE? Here is the link to the status page https://status.databricks.com/ just in case you have this issue in the future.

After all it is Community Edition. I also sometimes have there issues. Usually it is solved by edit cluster and change availability zone back to auto.

In full version there is never issue so I bet that there can be some limits in community edition (what is logical as there have to be some limit how much user can run 15GB cluster in the same time for free, with million of them databricks would bankrupt).

Got it @Hubert Dudek​ . Thanks for responding to my question.
