Solution

  • Your pom.xml is irrelevant. This error has nothing to do with the code you are trying to deploy.

    You do not have access to the app spark-heroku-example.

    You are trying to deploy to the Heroku app spark-heroku-example. Do you own that app? Did you create it, or have you been invited to contribute to it? Probably not.

    I guess you are following this tutorial but missed or misread this step:

    heroku create spark-heroku-example #choose your own application name
    

    The author chose and registered the name spark-heroku-example. You need to pick another name (or you can let Heroku pick a name for you by simply running heroku create without any arguments).

    Make sure to use your app's name everywhere the author uses spark-heroku-example in the tutorial.
