I am working on a Zeppelin 0.7.1 and I need to use booth the elasticsearch-spark dependency and the play-json dependency. However these two are for some reason incompatible with each other. If I remove the json dependency, es-spark works fine. The moment I add it, the interpreter breaks.
The following are the interpreters:
org.elasticsearch:elasticsearch-spark-20_2.11:5.4.1
com.typesafe.play:play-json_2.11:2.6.0-M5
(exclude) com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-databind
The following is the error message:
java.lang.NullPointerException

The excluded jackson-databind is not a problem. Tried it with and without it but nothing changed.
