Steven Lowenthal commented on CASSANDRA-6190: --------------------------------------------- I've even tried it by explicitly setting JAVA_HOME to point at my various javas. Remember - if we aren't using Java 7, we don't fall into the code that adds that parameter. Java 7 gets put in the system.log. > Cassandra 2.0 won't start up on some platforms with Java 7u40 > ------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-6190 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6190 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Config > Environment: Ubuntu 13.04 32- and 64-bit JDK 7u40 (tried JRE 7u25) > Reporter: Steven Lowenthal > > Java 7u40 on some platforms do not recognize the the -XX:+UseCondCardMark JVM > option. 7u40 on Macintosh works correctly, If I use the tarball 7u40 > version of 7, we encounter the error below.
