Jared Biel commented on CASSANDRA-5212:
---------------------------------------
Thanks - I didn't see that needle in the (hay) stack. It looks like as a result
of CASSANDRA-5155 the file cassandra-rackdc.properties is now required to be in
/etc/cassandra. However, this file is not distributed with the standard Debian
Cassandra package. Maybe this should be documented in cassandra.yaml or the
file should be distributed as part of the Debian package? Thanks for your help.

> Key: CASSANDRA-5212
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5212
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Affects Versions: 1.2.1
> Environment: Ubuntu 12.04 x64
> OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM/1.6.0_24
> m1.large EC2 Instance
> MAX_HEAP_SIZE="1242M"
> HEAP_NEWSIZE="200M"
> Reporter: Jared Biel
> Priority: Minor

> Hello, we're using vanilla Cassandra in an EC2 environment and I just tested
> upgrading from 1.2.0 to 1.2.1 on two test instances. Cassandra fails to start
> because it's unable to load the Ec2Snitch. Version 1.2.0 was working OK. I
> have tried this on uninitialized/empty instances and received the same
> result. Cassandra successfully starts when switching to SimpleSnitch. Log
> output is below. We're using the official debian package from apache.org.
> Please let me know if you need any more details, thanks!
