How do I start cassandra on Windows? And what does my environment have to look like?
I am getting an error when starting cassandra on Windows... uname -o not supported. I am using uname (GNU sh-utils) 2.0 I am not running in cygwin but just a pure powershell Window. My Cassandra version comes directly from git Here is what I tried: D:\dev\3rdparty\cassandra\cassandra [trunk +1 ~0 -0 !]> .\bin\cassandra.bat -v -f Detected powershell execution permissions. Running with enhanced startup scripts.
