Chris Lohfink commented on CASSANDRA-6450: ------------------------------------------ not sure if related to authentication, might be something with your data? I enabled authentication/authorization in cassandra.yaml with default cassandra/cassandra user and gave it a quick try: {code} /var/lib/cassandra/data/Keyspace1/Standard1$ sstable2json Keyspace1-Standard1-ic-1-Data.db WARN 14:43:53,224 MemoryMeter uninitialized (jamm not specified as java agent); KeyCache size in JVM Heap will not be calculated accurately. Usually this means cassandra-env.sh disabled jamm because you are using a buggy JRE; upgrade to the Sun JRE instead [ {"key": "30313236303933","columns": [["C0", ... {code} Or perhaps theres something involved in adding data after authentication enabled? Are there any other steps to help reproduce this? > sstable2json hangs if keyspace uses authentication > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-6450 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6450 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: Ubuntu 12 > Reporter: Josh Dzielak > Priority: Minor > Labels: lhf > > Running sstable2json against an authenticated keyspace hangs indefinitely. > True for other utilities based on SSTableExport as well. > Running sstable2json against other unauthenticated keyspaces in the same > node/cluster was successful. Running against any CF in the keyspace with > password authentication on resulted in a hang. > It looks like it gets about to: > Table table = Table.open(descriptor.ksname); or > table.getColumnFamilyStore(baseName); > in SSTableExport.java but no farther. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
