无法在 macOS 上初始化 Cassandra

Question

I have installed Cassandra 3.11.3 on macOS 10.14. openjdk version "11" 2018-09-25 OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11+28) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11+28, mixed mode)

When I attempt to start cassandra, I get

    INFO  [main] 2018-10-26 15:11:28,607 ColumnFamilyStore.java:411 - Initializing system_schema.aggregates

I am guessing, something is not initialised somewhere or there is a Java-related incompatibility. Any ideas anyone?

Answer 1

Support for Java > 8 will be only in the Cassandra 4.0, and the planned release date isn't known yet. So you always need to use Java 8 for Casasndra 3.11.x

You can read more about upcoming version and Java 11 in following blog post .
