@aaron Thanks for your reply. I did have a look rpm installed files 1. /etc/alternatives/cassandra, it contains configuration files only. and .sh files are installed within /usr/bin folder.
Even if i try to run from extracted tar ball folder as /home/impadmin/apache-cassandra-1.2.4/bin/cassandra -f same error. /home/impadmin/apache-cassandra-1.2.4/bin/cassandra -v gives me 1.1.12 though it should give me 1.2.4 -Vivek it gives me same error.
