> There's a bug in accepting numeric types for linear regression. We cast the label to {{DoubleType}} in one spot where we use normal solver, but not for the l-bfgs solver. The following can reproduce the problem:
> {code}
> import org.apache.spark.ml.feature.LabeledPoint
> import org.apache.spark.ml.linalg.{Vector, DenseVector, Vectors}
> import org.apache.spark.ml.regression.LinearRegression
> import org.apache.spark.sql.types._
> val df = Seq(LabeledPoint(1.0, Vectors.dense(1.0))).toDF().withColumn("weight", lit(1.0).cast(LongType))
> val lr = new LinearRegression().setSolver("l-bfgs").setWeightCol("weight")
> lr.fit(df)
> {code}
