Cassandra instance not started on Katacoda scenario

Hi,

I tried to do a revision on Apache Cassandra in Datastax_katacoda_Scenario but the Cqlsh Instance was not started for querying commands. I have waited for minutes but no response on CQLSH side.

sleep 5; wait.sh
Starting up Cassandra... [\]         // I have been wating here for morethan 15 minutes

I need your help. I have also attached a screenshot of the issue which you can find along with this question. Kindly assist me to get my instance running.

If this question is considered to be out of your reach, kindly ignore this and let me know.

Looking forward to your acknowledgement !!

[EDIT] We've escalated the issue to the team who manages and maintains the Katakoda scenarios. Cheers!

[UPDATE] There was an emergency release of Apache Cassandra today to address a JMX vulnerability (CVE-2016-3427). This meant that the previous version of Cassandra that is downloaded by the Katakoda scenarios was no longer available.

The DataStax Developer Learning team who maintain the tutorials have deployed a fix and the Katakoda scenarios are available again.

Hi Erick,

I have reloaded and started other scenarios but the instance is not started. I tried this since yesterday.

Do you think this might be due to latency issue or if any kindly let me know?


I'm sorry for asking about this again and again :)

Can you run an internet speed test and let me know the result? It doesn't matter which one you choose. Common tests are https://speedof.me/ and https://www.speedtest.net/.

5Mbps is pretty good so it's not your internet. Can you reboot your laptop and try again?

Hi @Erick Ramirez,

As you have told, i rebooted the system once again and checked with different scenarios but the issue still persists. I have attached a screenshot of katacoda window after rebooting my system which you can find below.
