William Streaker commented on CASSANDRA-11573: ---------------------------------------------- Ran into this same issue on Friday 4/22/2016. Datastax package version of Cassandra (v3.5) cqlsh does not work with Centos 7, I got it to work by rebuilding python but that disables yum so not a workable option. I reverted to version 3.4 which seems to work fine. > cqlsh fails with undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS2_DecodeUTF8 > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-11573 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11573 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: centos 7, datastax ddc 3.5 > installed according to > http://docs.datastax.com/en/cassandra/3.x/cassandra/install/installRHEL.html > JVM vendor/version: OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM/1.8.0_77 > Cassandra version: 3.5.0 > Reporter: Oli Schacher > > trying to run cqlsh produces: > {quote} > cqlsh > Traceback (most recent call last): > File "/usr/bin/cqlsh.py", line 170, in <module> > from cqlshlib.copyutil import ExportTask, ImportTask > ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/cqlshlib/copyutil.so: undefined > symbol: PyUnicodeUCS2_DecodeUTF8 > {quote} > with 3.4 the error does not happen. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
