@scano_183208I facing same issue on my Cassandra server.
DSE Version: 6.7.8
OS: Amazon Linux release 2 (Karoo)

[root@cass-x-x-x-x-cassandra]# dse -v

6.7.8
[root@cass-x-x-x-x-cassandra]# systemctl start dse

Job for dse.service failed because the control process exited with error code. See "systemctl status dse.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.


It is working fine with DSE-6.7.9 but bot version below that.


@Erick Ramirez any thoughts here?

Thanks,

-Varun

I have a feeling that you haven't looked at my answer -- you need to review the DSE logs to identify the cause of the failure. Cheers!

I've noted that you managed to resolve this yourself.

For what it's worth, checking the status of the service is not sufficient to troubleshoot the problem. You needed to review the DSE logs to identify the cause of the failure.

I suspect this is what you did to solve the problem. Cheers!
