-----------------------------------

             Summary: No error log for a typo master url 
                 Key: SPARK-5126
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-5126
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Spark Core
            Reporter: Shixiong Zhu
            Priority: Minor


If a typo master url  is passed to Worker, it only print the following logs:

{noformat}
15/01/07 14:30:02 INFO worker.Worker: Connecting to master spark://master url:7077...
15/01/07 14:30:02 INFO remote.RemoteActorRefProvider$RemoteDeadLetterActorRef: Message [org.apache.spark.deploy.DeployMessages$RegisterWorker] from Actor[akka://sparkWorker/user/Worker#-282880172] to Actor[akka://sparkWorker/deadLetters] was not delivered. [3] dead letters encountered. This logging can be turned off or adjusted with configuration settings 'akka.log-dead-letters' and 'akka.log-dead-letters-during-shutdown'.
{noformat}

It's not obvious to know the url is wrong. And {{akka://sparkWorker/deadLetters}} is also confusing. The `deadLetters` Actor is because `actorSelection` will return `deadLetters` for invalid path.

{code}
  def actorSelection(path: String): ActorSelection = path match {
    case RelativeActorPath(elems) ⇒
      if (elems.isEmpty) ActorSelection(provider.deadLetters, "")
      else if (elems.head.isEmpty) ActorSelection(provider.rootGuardian, elems.tail)
      else ActorSelection(lookupRoot, elems)
    case ActorPathExtractor(address, elems) ⇒
      ActorSelection(provider.rootGuardianAt(address), elems)
    case _ ⇒
      ActorSelection(provider.deadLetters, "")
  }
{code}

I think logging an error about invalid url is better.
