> Debian package does not create default hints directory
> ------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CASSANDRA-10833
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10833
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Packaging
> Reporter: Stuart Bishop
> Assignee: Michael Shuler
> Priority: Minor
>
> The default hints directory is set to /var/lib/cassandra/hints, but this
> directory is not created when the Debian package is installed. As
> /var/lib/cassandra is owned by root, it cannot be created automatically on
> startup and startup fails.
