------------------------------------------
Summary: Improve error message when bootstrap fails
Key: CASSANDRA-9113
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-9113
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Wish
Components: Core
Reporter: Philip Thompson
Fix For: 3.1
Currently when bootstrap fails, users see a {{RuntimeException: Stream failed}}
with a long stack trace. This typically brings them to IRC, the mailing list,
or jira. However, most of the time, it is not due to a C* server failure, but
network or machine issues.
While there are probably improvements that could be made to improve the
resiliency of streaming, it would be nice if, assuming no server errors
detected, that instead of the RuntimeException users are shown a less traumatic
error message, that includes or points to documentation on how to solve a
failed bootstrap stream.
