Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Cassandra Wiki" for change notification.
The following page has been changed by MikeMalone: http://wiki.apache.org/cassandra/GettingStarted ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ === Start Cassandra on a single node === - 1. edit `conf/storage-conf.xml` to your satisfaction. By default it will run on localhost and use `/var/cassandra` for data and logs (so create that directory and chown it appropriately if you want to keep things there). + 1. edit `conf/storage-conf.xml` to your satisfaction. By default it will run on localhost and use `/var/cassandra` for data and logs (so create that directory and chown it appropriately if you want to keep things there). If you use a different log and data directory you'll probably also want to edit the log4j log location in conf/log4j.properties. 1. `bin/cassandra` to start (`-f` to start in foreground.) 1. Go to http://localhost:7002 with your web browser. If cassandra is running you will get a (very rudimentary) admin console page. (This won't always be 127.0.0.1 or even localhost; Cassandra tries to guess your "real" hostname and listen on that. Sometimes it does not guess what you'd expect. We have a [https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-43 ticket] to address this.)
