Robert Stupp commented on CASSANDRA-7398:
-----------------------------------------
If it helps (and not already done), I can do this tomorrow evening (CEST).
But the assumption to prefix "everything" with {{file:///}} (three slashes
before drive specification) is wrong.
[MSDN|http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2006/12/06/file-uris-in-windows.aspx]
specifies the URI format:
{{ 'file://' <server> '/' <share> '/' <path> }}
The 'server' part is only empty for local files that are accessible via a
drive-letter-mapping.
One quick way out of the dilemma might be this os independent (pseudo) code:
{noformat}
String configUrl = System.getProperty("cassandra.config");
URL url;
try
{
// try to parse URI
URI configURI = new URI(configUrl);
url = configURI.toURL();
}
catch (UriSyntaxException...)
{
// wrong URI format - try via file path
URI configURI = new File(configUrl).toURI();
url = configURI.toURL();
}
{noformat}
> Using the -Dcassandra.config VM param needs a "file:///" prefix for the
> supplied URL
