Now I'm experiencing this: [iwuser@erwin-lab2 bin]$ ./cqlsh
Python CQL driver not installed, or not on PYTHONPATH. You might try "easy_install cql". Python: /usr/local/bin/python2.6 Module load path: ['./../lib/thrift-python-internal-only-0.9.1.zip', './../lib/cql-internal-only-1.4.1.zip/cql-1.4.1', '/home/iwuser/dsc-cassandra-2.0.2/bin', '/usr/local/bin/python2.6', '/usr/local/lib/python26.zip', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/plat-linux2', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/lib-tk', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/lib-old', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/lib-dynload', '/usr/local/lib/python2.6/site-packages'] *Error: can't decompress data; zlib not available* Any idea?
