Locale settings on windows can break schema
-------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-4169
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4169
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Core
Environment: Windows
Reporter: Nick Bailey
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.2
The locale settings on windows can somehow affect how schema information is
either saved or loaded. When setting locale/language settings to Turkish, and
then starting cassandra, schema changes can be made successfully. When
restarting cassandra though, the following error is seen:

This was reported on the DataStax forums, as well as reproduced by myself.
