just tried cassandra 0.8.5 binary version, and got Segment fault.... I am using Sun JDK so this is not CASSANDRA-2441
OS is Debian 5.0 java -version java version "1.6.0_04" Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.6.0_04-b12) Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 10.0-b19, mixed mode) uname -a Linux mao 2.6.27.59 #1 SMP Mon Jul 25 14:30:33 CST 2011 i686 GNU/Linux I also found that the format of configuration file "cassandra.yaml" is different, are they compatible? thanks!
