Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-8142:
-----------------------------------------
Changed the patch to error on unknown options - including {{cassandra start}}
and {{cassandra -C}} for example.
Triggered a [dtest
run|http://cassci.datastax.com/view/Dev/view/snazy/job/snazy-8142-root-trunk-dtest/]
on that patch.
> prevent the command "cassandra start" from starting a cluster

> Key: CASSANDRA-8142
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-8142
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Packaging
> Reporter: Steven Lowenthal
> Assignee: Robert Stupp
>
> Students often type
> "sudo service cassandra start" wrong, and type "sudo cassandra start".
> Running a package installation as root messes up their environments.
> since "start" is not a valid option on the "cassandra" command, we should
> block cassandra from starting.
