JMX exposing non-standard java classes, to fix requires a breaking change

2022-04-05 Thread David Capwell
There are 2 places that expose non-standard java classes, so JMX only works if and only if the JMX client also has Cassandra's jars, else they will fail; the 2 examples are org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageServiceMBean#enableAuditLog throws org.apache.cassandra.exceptions.ConfigurationException

I was chatting to Bowen Song a couple of weeks ago and we stumbled on the topic of "low quality questions". They're the kind of questions that usually lack information and/or context that make them difficult to answer. As much as we hate it, we end up answering these questions with a bunch of other

So my suggestion from what I hear - reject anything below -1. - -1 points to the default. - >=0 being valid. - Done for both startup and the setters. - Done only on trunk for now and I will add comment in Config instead of NEWS.txt due to their hidden nature. So my understanding is that 0 and 1 w

Thank you both! As my understanding is that it will be more involved to deal with the per version config loading and that is the reason it was not done yet but a flag was added, I suggest we opt in for the flag and revise again this after the release. Let’s add it to the other topics we discussed

I'm against this change. CentOS 7 only has Python up to 3.6 available from the EPEL repository, and the maintenance updates for CentOS 7 ends in 2024. See: https://wiki.centos.org/About/Product To install Python>3.6 on CentOS 7, the user must either use a 3rd party repository that's not main

Hello, I stumbled upon this ticket (1) We will have Cassandra running with unsupported Python 3.6 once we release 4.1 which is not good in my books. I would like to try to bump it to 3.8 as minimum, it will get security updates to 2024 at least. Does it make sense to people? Especially so close
