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

             Summary: PySpark toLocalIterator does not raise errors from worker
                 Key: SPARK-27548
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-27548
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: PySpark
    Affects Versions: 2.4.1
            Reporter: Bryan Cutler


When using a PySpark RDD local iterator and an error occurs on the worker, it is not picked up by Py4J and raised in the Python driver process. So unless looking at logs, there is no way for the application to know the worker had an error. This is a test that should pass if the error is raised in the driver:
{code}
def test_to_local_iterator_error(self):

    def fail(_):
        raise RuntimeError("local iterator error")

    rdd = self.sc.parallelize(range(10)).map(fail)

    with self.assertRaisesRegexp(Exception, "local iterator error"):
        for _ in rdd.toLocalIterator():
            pass{code}
but it does not raise an exception:
{noformat}
