Ivo Ladage - van Doorn resolved AMDATUCASSANDRA-103.
----------------------------------------------------
Assignee: Ivo Ladage - van Doorn
Resolution: Won't Fix
The problem is in the DatabaseDescriptor class of Cassandra. In this class a
static code snippet is executed in which the Cassandra configuration is read
from the cassandra.yaml. If some configuration properties are incorrect, it
catches the exception and does a System.exit().
So to resolve it we should either patch Cassandra (modify this class) or
perform a validation of the resulting cassandra.yaml before we pass it to
Cassandra. In the latter case we should copy/paste large portions of this
class, of which we know it is is highly subjective to change. So in both cases
we will introduce a lot of work, migration issues and possible new errors.
Furthermore, in most cases (even when you leave the seeds config empty for
example) the generated cassandra.yaml is valid, since we take the default
cassandra.yaml and only apply changes from the amdatu specific config (it took
me some time to find the reproduction path with setting the IP address to
0.0.0.0).
Note that we can still implement the extra validation for individual errors
that are likely to occur (as opposed to setting the IP address to 0.0.0.0). For
these cases, a separate JIRA issue should be created.
