   Hi I've installed the cassandra and java with following process
   Installing Java

   sudo apt-get install python-software-properties
   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ferramroberto/java
   sudo apt-get update dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us
   sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk sun-java6-plugin
   sudo apt-get install sun-java6-jdk
   sudo update-alternatives --config java

   Installing Cassandra

   vim source.list

   #deb http://www.apache.org/dist/cassandra/debian 11x main
   #deb-src http://www.apache.org/dist/cassandra/debian 11x main

   deb http://www.apache.org/dist/cassandra/debian 10x main
   deb-src http://www.apache.org/dist/cassandra/debian 10x main

   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install cassandra

   If you got the error like

   GPG error: http://www.apache.org unstable Release: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY F758CE318D77295D
   Then
   gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys F758CE318D77295D
   gpg --export --armor F758CE318D77295D | sudo apt-key add -
   gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 2B5C1B00
   gpg --export --armor 2B5C1B00 | sudo apt-key add -
   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install cassandra
   To updates Alternatives
   sudo update-alternatives --config javac
   sudo update-alternatives --config java
   sudo update-alternatives --config javaws
   dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us

   Here when i installed 10x stable the installation is successful and when installing 11x stable

   The error was like

   xss = -ea -javaagent:/usr/share/cassandra/lib/jamm-0.2.5.jar -XX:+UseThreadPriorities -XX:ThreadPriorityPolicy=42 -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -Xmn256M -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Xss180k
   * Cassandra is not running

   I would like to use 11x because it supports cqlsh. And I found the built was modified on 2012-12-20.Which was the date i faced problem. (http://www.apache.org/dist/cassandra/debian/dists/)
   Can you please say how to fix it.

   Thanks.

   Sorry you had a problem and for the delay in answering. Have you tried following the instructions on http://www.datastax.com/docs/1.2/install/install_deb?

   Hi Khan,

   Thanks for the reply. Can i have brief description on the error

   xss = -ea -javaagent:/usr/share/cassandra/lib/jamm-0.2.5.jar -XX:+UseThreadPriorities -XX:ThreadPriorityPolicy=42 -Xms1024M -Xmx1024M -Xmn256M -XX:+HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Xss180k
   * Cassandra is not running

   It might be useful for me.

   Thanks,
   Dileep Chittaluri.

   I think the HeapDumpOnOutOfMemoryError -Xss180k that you see when Cassandra starts up is really not an error message. It is a parameter setting: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4651541/how-to-set-heapdumponoutofmemoryerror-and-heapdumppath-in-startup-bat-file-on-wi

   If you had a previous version of cassandra installed, perform an upgrade (see http://www.datastax.com/docs/1.2/install/upgrading) instead of an install if you need to keep your previous data. If you don't need your previous data, clear the /var/lib/cassandra directory before starting the new version:

   as root: rm -rf /var/lib/cassandra/*

   If you don't do this, the Cassandra 1.2 will try to use your old version of the database--this will not work.
