Stephen L. De Rudder commented on CASSANDRA-16085: -------------------------------------------------- *Workaround:* Cassandra is using jna-4.2.2.2.jar that has a native dll in it (jnidispatch.dll) that needs msvcr100.dll that is part of Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64). If you install that then Cassandra will run without crashing. NOTE: It may be hard to find "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)" from Microsoft. Here is a URL where I found it (url from Installshield prerequisite file for "Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)"): http://download.microsoft.com/download/3/2/2/3224B87F-CFA0-4E70-BDA3-3DE650EFEBA5/vcredist_x64.exe *Better Option:* The other option is getting Cassandra 3.11.12 released but I am not sure if and when that is going to happen. > Cassandra fails to start using Java SE 8 Update 261 > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-16085 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16085 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Local/Startup and Shutdown > Reporter: Alex Drinkwater > Assignee: Stephen L.
