Thank You so much Maki :) Its working now... I dont know what went wrong yesterday...
BTW bin/cassandra-cli --host localhost is to read and write data using the command line client right??? So what if i need to load data from a file into cassandra??? i.e.i have a log file with so many lines... lines may be in the format <sessionid> <key> <value> so how can i load data from this log file into cassandra?
