Hi Chandra, I'm using Cassandra 1.2.1 and jna/platform 3.5.1.
One thing I should mention is that I tried putting the jar files into my java jre/lib directory. The theory being those jars would be available to all java apps. In that case Cassandra will start but still not recognize JNA. If I copy the jars to the cassandra/lib directory, I have the same crashing issue. Even if I symlink from the jre/lib directory to the cassandra/lib directory the same issue occurs. It's like this version of Cassandra can't stand having the jna jar in it's lib directory. I'm beginning to wonder if if anyone has gotten JNA to work with this version of cassandra and if so how. I've only tried a tarball install so far, I can't say about the package install which may well work.
