`show config file` in cli causes server to throw NPE 
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: CASSANDRA-129
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-129
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
         Environment: OS X, Java 1.7 (via soylatte)
            Reporter: Jeff Hodges


Booting up the cli and running the command "show config file" in the lastest 
from trunk (r771019) on a fresh and empty cassandra instance causes a 
NullPointerError to be thrown. By looking at the code (but being a not-so-hot 
java developer), it looks like the problem is simply 
DatabaseDescriptor.getConfigFileName() returning a null because configFileName_ 
never gets set anywhere in the code.

The error in question:

ERROR - Error occurred during processing of message.
java.lang.NullPointerException
