java.lang.String cannot be cast to org.apache.spark.unsafe.types.UTF8String

问题

最近遇到一个问题，在用spark读取tensorflow的文件并写入时

//读数据
val df = spark.read.format("tfrecords").load(readpath).toDF()

//写数据
df.write.mode(SaveMode.Overwrite).format("tfrecords").option("recordtype","Example").save(writePath)

出现如下报错：

我用的是jar包是：spark-tensorflow-connector_2.11-1.6.0.jar

解决方案：

主要是版本的问题，更换spark connector的jar包

spark-tensorflow-connector_2.11-1.14.0.jar
