Answer 1

Add SPARK_LOCAL_IP in load-spark-env.sh as

export SPARK_LOCAL_IP="127.0.0.1"

The load-spark-env.sh file is located in spark/bin directory

Or you can add your hostname in /etc/hosts file as

127.0.0.1   hostname 

You can get your hostname by typing hostname in terminal

Hope this solves the issue!
