Brandon Williams resolved CASSANDRA-4058.
-----------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
I don't think papering over a problem a user has caused is a good idea, since
they are possibly doing something they don't intend to.
> Debian package does not create /var/lib/cassandra/data
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-4058
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4058
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Packaging
> Environment: Ubuntu 11.10
> Reporter: Jacob Fenwick
>
> I installed Cassandra using the Debian packages as described here:
> http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/DebianPackaging
> When trying to start Cassandra using /etc/init.d/cassandra start I get this
> error: java.io.IOError: java.io.IOException: unable to mkdirs
> /var/lib/cassandra/data
> The directory /var/lib/cassandra exists, but the directory
> /var/lib/cassandra/data does not.
> I would assume the data directory should have been created with the correct
> permissions, but it was not.
> However, I tried creating /var/lib/cassandra/data and setting it the
> permissions to 666 and setting the user/group to cassandra/cassandra, and now
> I get this error:
> java.lang.AssertionError: Directory /var/lib/cassandra/data is not accessible.
> So what could possibly be the problem here?
