NullPointerException when using sstableloader with PropertyFileSnitch configured
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-4145
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4145
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 1.0.6
Reporter: Ji Cheng
Priority: Minor
I got a NullPointerException when using sstableloader on 1.0.6. The cluster is
using PropertyFileSnitch. The same configuration file is used for
sstableloader.
The problem is if StorageService is initialized before DatabaseDescriptor,
PropertyFileSnitch will try to access StorageService.instance before it
finishes initialization.
