Re: [Hawkular-dev] Could not connect to Cassandra ... - does it have to be a WARN with a stack trace?

Glad I am not the only one that finds those messages annoying :) Indeed, this is an Hawkular issue with embedded Cassandra. We should fix it by properly defining the startup dependencies, we may also think of keeping "embedded Cassandra" as a separate process. The idea of "embedding Cassandra" is that we don't need to ask users to go download it, "install it" and run it. But we could consider having a Cassandra in a different process (configured for our needs such as the data location, port and other settings) that is required to be started prior to run Hawkular (Hawkular would need to fail quickly and clearly if the user "forgot" to start Cassandra). PS: I am not advocating for one or the other solution as I don't know the advantages/drawbacks of both solutions Thomas On 07/27/2015 11:11 AM, Michael Burman wrote: > Hi, > > And how would you distinguish between real warning and incorrect one?
