Hi all,

Following these instructions:

http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.db.cassandra.user/29753


I am trying to change the name of the cluster, but I'm getting an error:

ERROR [main] 2013-09-10 17:52:43,250 CassandraDaemon.java (line 247) Fatal 
exception during initialization
org.apache.cassandra.exceptions.ConfigurationException: Saved cluster name 
tmpCassandra != configured name cassandra

For step 3 in the instructions, I moved LocationInfo located in the system 
keyspace to another
directory and when I try to restart the node, the directory is re-created, but 
still get the error.

I'm running 1.2.8, is this still the correct system keyspace to move.

Also, although not indicated as a must do – in step 2, I did a drain, but did 
not remove the commitlog's

If I name the cluster back to its original name, the cluster will come back up 
without any problems.


Jim
