Hi Guys,

I installed Cassandra successfully in my system and I tried to check status, but I am getting below error.

$ nodetool status
nodetool: Failed to connect to '127.0.0.1:7199' - ConnectException: 'Connection refused (Connection refused)'.

what am I doing wrong?

Thank You

Hi@akhtar,

To avoid this error, You have to configure cassandra-env.sh file.

• Open the configuration file using following command.

$ vi /etc/cassandra/default.conf/cassandra-env.sh

• uncomment the below line

JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=127.0.0.1"

• Restart cassandra service

$ systemctl restart cassandra

Hope this will help.

Thank You
