Hi, First of all thanks for this release, here are a few annoyances I spotted while trying it out the published debian packages: The cassandra-env.sh is ran by /bin/sh and uses constructs not available in plain sh. this is fixed in 76fa3204 by Jonathan Ellis Starting the daemon provided in the Debian package will constantly fail due to thrift exception classes not being found. This stems from the fact that the generated thrift classes are not included in the jar available in the Debian package, comparing the 0.7.3 package and the 0.8.0-beta1 reveals the following difference: On 0.7.3: #unzip -l /usr/share/cassandra/apache-cassandra.jar | grep InvalidRequestException.class 1426 2011-03-11 18:23 org/apache/cassandra/avro/InvalidRequestException.class 8752 2011-03-11 18:23 org/apache/cassandra/thrift/InvalidRequestException.class On 0.8.0-beta1: # unzip -l /usr/share/cassandra/apache-cassandra.jar | grep InvalidRequestException.class I hope this helps. - pyr
