Andrew Trimble created CASSANDRA-8534: -----------------------------------------
Summary: The default configuration URL does not have the required file:// prefix and throws an exception if cassandra.config is not set. Key: CASSANDRA-8534 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8534 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Components: Config, Core Environment: Any Reporter: Andrew Trimble Fix For: 2.1.3 Attachments: error.txt In the class org.apache.cassandra.config.YamlConfigurationLoader, the DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION is set to "cassandra.yaml". This is improperly formatted as it does not contain the prefix "file://". If this value is used, a ConfigurationException is thrown (see line 73 of the same class). A solution is to set the cassandra.config system property, but this does not solve the underlying problem. A vanilla Cassandra installation will throw this error. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
