I am trying to build Casandra project on a Centos server. I downloaded the file from here.
http://apache.bilkent.edu.tr/cassandra/2.0.6/
Here is the README.txt file
This short guide will walk you through getting a basic one node cluster up
and running, and demonstrate some simple reads and writes.
* tar -zxvf apache-cassandra-$VERSION.tar.gz
* cd apache-cassandra-$VERSION
* sudo mkdir -p /var/log/cassandra
* sudo chown -R `whoami` /var/log/cassandra
* sudo mkdir -p /var/lib/cassandra
* sudo chown -R `whoami` /var/lib/cassandra
Note: The sample configuration files in conf/ determine the file-system
locations Cassandra uses for logging and data storage. You are free to
change these to suit your own environment and adjust the path names
used here accordingly.
Now that we're ready, let's start it up!
* bin/cassandra -f
As README.txt file suggested I followed these instructions as adapting to my case (I am not root).
tar -zxvf apache-cassandra-2.0.6-src.tar.gz
cd apache-cassandra-2.0.6-src
mkdir -p var/log/cassandra
chown -R `whoami` var/log/cassandra
mkdir -p var/lib/cassandra
chown -R `whoami` var/lib/cassandra
Since I am not root on the server, I can not create my files under /var
folder. So, I created new folder var
under apache-cassandra-2.0.6-src
and put my lib
and log
files there. Then I followed next instructions from README.txt file.
bin/cassandra -f
However whatever I tried it is no good, I always get this error.
Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon
How can I fix this problem?
My java version
java -version
java version "1.7.0_51"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (rhel-2.4.4.1.el6_5-x86_64 u51-b02)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode)
EDIT:
As an extra informaiton, I tried this instructions on my pc, too. Exactly same thing with README.txt file using sudo
and it worked.
I see you have downloaded the source package (apache-cassandra-2.0.6-src.tar.gz), but the instructions you posted seem to assume it is already built.
You need to build the source package before you can use it; there would be a separate set of instructions for that somewhere.
I suspect you'd rather just run it instead of building it from source. You may have meant to download the binary package apache-cassandra-2.0.6-bin.tar.gz instead (note "bin", not "src" -- this is a traditional naming convention when separating binaries from source in downloadable archives). With that package you can just run it right out of the box. For the source package you'd need to follow the build instructions to compile cassandra first.
I also suspect that you downloaded the binary package on the PC side, which is why it worked there.
If you do need to build from source:
ant
and ant-optional
if you do not already have it.Extract the source archive somewhere, then in the base directory (where build.xml
is):
ant release
rat
task at the end takes forever).build
, and a built distribution can be found in build/dist
