--------------------------------------------
Summary: Empty CommitLog prevents restart
Key: CASSANDRA-12539
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12539
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Stefano Ortolani
A node just crashed (known cause: CASSANDRA-11594) but to my surprise (unlike
other time) restarting simply fails.
Checking the logs showed:
{noformat}
ERROR [main] 2016-08-25 17:05:22,611 JVMStabilityInspector.java:82 - Exiting
due to error while processing commit log during initialization.

Deleting the empty file fixes the problem.
