[SOLVED] Apache Cassandra: Unable to gossip with any seeds

Apache Cassandra: Unable to gossip with any seeds

I have built Cassandra server 2.0.3, then run it. It is starting and then stopped with messages:

X:\MyProjects\cassandra\apache-cassandra-2.0.3-src\bin>cassandra.bat >log.txt
java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to gossip with any seeds

What I can change to run it?

Solution

I had a similar problem with my cassandra v2.0.4 cluster running a single node.

Check your cassandra.yaml and make sure that your "listen_address" and "seeds" values match, with the exception that the seeds value requires quotes around it.
