cassandra service (3.11.5) stops automaticall after it starts/restart on AWS linux - cassandra

cassandra service (3.11.5) stops automatically after it starts/restart on AWS linux.
I have fresh installation of cassandra on new instance of AWS linux (t3.xlarge) and
sudo service cassandra start
or
sudo service cassandra restart
after 1 or 2 seconds, the service stop automatically. I looked into logs and I found these.
I am not sure, I havent change configs related to snitch and its always SimpleSnitch. I dont have any multiple cassandras. Just only on single EC2.

The issue is in your log file:

It seems that you started the cluster, stopped it and renamed the datacenter from dc1 to datacenter1.
In order to fix:
If no data is stored, delete the data directories
If data is stored, rename the datacenter back to dc1 in the config

I had the same problem , where cassandra service immediately stops after it was started.
in the cassandra configuration file located at /etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml change the cluster_name to the previous one, like this:
...
# The name of the cluster. This is mainly used to prevent machines in
# one logical cluster from joining another.
cluster_name: 'dc1'
# This defines the number of tokens randomly assigned to this node on the ring
# The more tokens, relative to other nodes, the larger the proportion of data
...

Apache Cassandra 3.7 snitch issue cannot start data center

I am using ubuntu 14.04 with apache cassandra 3.7. I am trying to start it but get the following error message:
ERROR [main] 2016-07-15 15:22:10,627 CassandraDaemon.java:731 - Cannot start node if snitch's data center (dc1) differs from previous data center (datacenter1). Please fix the snitch configuration, decommission and rebootstrap this node or use the flag -Dcassandra.ignore_dc=true.
I know I can set -Dcassandra.ignore_dc=true, BUT that is not a fix, its a band-aid and for development use only, this is suppose to be in production. I tried to clear out all the files and folders in /var/lib/cassandra, I MEAN every SINGLE FILE AND FOLDER, started apache cassandra again, AND STILL THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE... any other idea??
change in file:
/etc/cassandra/cassandra-rackdc.properties
entry from dc1 to datacenter1
on all nodes
and then do a rolling restart of nodes.
If have just switched to GossipingPropertyFileSnitch, start Cassandra with the option
-Dcassandra.ignore_dc=true
If it starts successfully, execute:
nodetool repair
nodetool cleanup
Afterwards, Cassandra should be able to start normally without the ignore option.
I faced the issue while upgrading my Apache cassandra from 3.11.1 to 3.11.4 .
cassandra.yaml
old_Config : endpoint_snitch: GossipingPropertyFileSnitch
New_Config: endpoint_snitch: SimpleSnitch
{changed it to GossipingPropertyFileSnitch}
cassandra-rackdc.properties
old_version_config: dc:Dc1 rack:Rack1
New_version_config: dc:dc rack:rack (changed this to Dc1 and Rack1)
this resolves my issue

How to connect master and slaves in Apache-Spark? (Standalone Mode)

I'm using Spark Standalone Mode tutorial page to install Spark in Standalone mode.
1- I have started a master by:
./sbin/start-master.sh
2- I have started a worker by:
./bin/spark-class org.apache.spark.deploy.worker.Worker spark://ubuntu:7077
Note: spark://ubuntu:7077 is my master name, which I can see it in Master-WebUI.
Problem: By second command, a worker started successfully. But it couldn't associate with master. It tries repeatedly and then give this message:
15/02/08 11:30:04 WARN Remoting: Tried to associate with unreachable remote address [akka.tcp://sparkMaster#ubuntu:7077]. Address is now gated for 5000 ms, all messages to this address will be delivered to dead letters. Reason: Connection refused: ubuntu/127.0.1.1:7077

What is the problem?
Thanks
I usually start from spark-env.sh template. And I set, properties that I need. For simple cluster you need:
SPARK_MASTER_IP
Then, create a file called "slaves" in the same directory as spark-env.sh and slaves ip's (one per line). Assure you reach all slaves through ssh.
Finally, copy this configuration in every machine of your cluster. Then start the entire cluster executing start-all.sh script and try spark-shell to check your configuration.
> sbin/start-all.sh
> bin/spark-shell
You can set export SPARK_LOCAL_IP="You-IP" #to set the IP address Spark binds to on this node in $SPARK_HOME/conf/spark-env.sh
In my case, using spark 2.4.7 in standalone mode, I've created a passwordless ssh key using ssh-keygen, but still got asked for worker password when starting the cluster.
What I did was follow the instructions here
https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/how-to-set-up-ssh-keys-on-linux-unix/
This line solved the problem:
ssh-copy-id -i $HOME/.ssh/id_rsa.pub user#server-ip

Cassandra Cluster configuration

I am trying to configure two windows servers in my network as Cassandra cluster.
I did some reading in various sites and changed the below in Cassandra.yalm
after changing the default value of 127.0.0.1 to actual IP the Cassandra service is not starting.
I also added the map to actual IP to localhost in (windows) hosts file.
After doing the above change, the service is coming up when I start the service. it is stopping immediately.
The reason I am changing this IP is to make this a cluster with two node setup,
Please let me know if I miss some thing.
Version: Datastax community version of Cassandra
Server : windows.
Thx

cassandra - Saved cluster name Test Cluster != configured name

How am I supposed to bot a new Cassandra node when I get this error?
INFO [SSTableBatchOpen:1] 2014-02-25 01:51:17,132 SSTableReader.java (line 223) Opening /var/lib/cassandra/data/system/local/system-local-jb-5 (5725 bytes)

at org.apache.cassandra.service.CassandraDaemon.main(CassandraDaemon.java:552)
Name of cluster in the cassandra.yaml file is:
cluster_name: 'thisisstupid'
How do I resolve?
You can rename the cluster without deleting data by updating it's name in the system.local table (but you have to do this for each node...)
cqlsh> UPDATE system.local SET cluster_name = 'test' where key='local';
# flush the sstables to persist the update.
bash $ ./nodetool flush
Finally you need to rename the cluster to the new name in cassandra.yaml (again on each node)
The above commands with UPDATE SET cluster_name does not work for me. I found the working is to follow the instructions from the DataStax documentation on Initializing a multiple node cluster:
sudo service cassandra stop
sudo rm -rf /var/lib/cassandra/data/system/*
sudo vi /etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml, setup the proper parameters
sudo service cassandra start
nodetool status
For some good cluster node setups, I found this blog post to be very useful.
I had same issue with Datastax4.7 enterprise edition. I resolved it with above instructions:
Change the cluster name back to "test Cluster"
start the cluster:
cqlsh> UPDATE system.local SET cluster_name = 'Cassendra Cluster' where key='local';
cqlsh> exit;
$ nodetool flush system
Stop the cluster:
$sudo service dse stop;sudo service datastax-agent stop
Edit the file:
$ sudo vi /etc/dse/cassandra/cassandra.yaml
cluster_name: 'Cassendra Cluster'
Start the cluster:
$sudo service dse start;sudo service datastax-agent start
Check Installation log:
$ cat /var/log/cassandra/output.log
For Cassandra 3.0.5, I tired the answer by Lyuben Todorov but it was missing a key part:
bash $ ./nodetool flush
should be:
bash $ ./nodetool flush system
as in here
For Cassandra 3.7 you should replace the ./nodetool flush with ./nodetool flush system. Otherwise it won't work.
If cassandra is not running, you can wipe the data folder.
rm -rf /usr/lib/cassandra/data/*
This will clear the system tables which had the wrong cluster name. \
When your restart cassandra with the correct cluster name in your cassandra.yaml everything will be regenerated and you should be good.
For Bitnami certified Cassandra - 3.11.5
Here's the solution that worked for me:
Stop the Cassandra service
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh stop cassandra
Remove the system data
sudo rm -rf /opt/bitnami/cassandra/data/data/system/*
Start the Cassandra Service
sudo /opt/bitnami/ctlscript.sh start cassandra

upgrade form cassandra 1.2.5 to .1.2.6 failing

I have a cluster running on datastax-cassandra 1.2.5, it works fine, because of vnodes adn leveled compaction strategy issue i tried promoting it to 1.2.6.
So upgrading involved -
1 - stopping all the nodes
2 - deleting 1.2.5 rpm
3 - installing 1.2.6 rpm
4 - fixing cassandra.yaml
5 - starting cassandra.
Problem Statement - The problem now is that all the nodes are up and running, but not in one cluster. They all are operating in their own cluster even though the seeds in yaml points to the original seed.
nodetool status also just shows the one node (the node on which we are on)
system log shows one error

Any help on how to pass through it
Try to set the internode_compression to none. It will disable compression between nodes, which is failing because snappy cannot initialize
internode_compression: none
