Hi, I am in the process of upgrading Cassandra to the recently released v0.8.5 and facing an issue.
We had two Cassandra environments - one having 0.7.0 and another 0.7.2. The upgrade on 0.7.2 has happened smoothly, but on the environment having 0.7.0, when I make the switch, the DB fails to come up with the error below. Can someone help please? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INFO 13:03:46,025 JNA not found.
