Michael Frisch commented on CASSANDRA-11978:
--------------------------------------------
We haven't tried to bootstrap a new node, this occurred 100% of the time when
trying to do a repair in our production environment.
> StreamReader fails to write sstable if CF directory is symlink

> Key: CASSANDRA-11978
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11978
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Streaming and Messaging
> Reporter: Michael Frisch

> I'm using Cassandra v2.2.6. If the CF is stored as a symlink in the keyspace
> directory on disk then StreamReader.createWriter fails because
> Descriptor.fromFilename is passed the actual path on disk instead of path
> with the symlink.
> Example:
> /path/to/data/dir/Keyspace/CFName -> /path/to/data/dir/AnotherDisk/CFName
> Descriptor.fromFilename is passed "/path/to/data/dir/AnotherDisk/CFName"
> instead of "/path/to/data/dir/Keyspace/CFName", then it concludes that the
> keyspace name is "AnotherDisk" which is erroneous. I've temporarily worked
> around this by using cfs.keyspace.getName() to get the keyspace name and
> cfs.name to get the CF name as those are correct.
