------------------------------------

             Summary: Fix the regression to CASSANDRA-3983 that got introduced 
by CASSANDRA-10679
                 Key: CASSANDRA-11628
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11628
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Tools
            Reporter: Wei Deng


It appears that the commit from CASSANDRA-10679 accidentally cancelled out the 
effect that was originally intended by CASSANDRA-3983. In this case, we would 
like to address the following situation:

When you already have a C* package installed (which will deploy a file as 
/usr/share/cassandra/cassandra.in.sh), but also attempt to run from a binary 
download from http://cassandra.apache.org/download/, many tools like 
cassandra-stress, sstablescrub, etal. will search the packaged dir 
(/usr/share/cassandra/cassandra.in.sh) for 'cassandra.in.sh' before searching 
the dir in your binary download or source build. We should reverse the order of 
that search so it checks locally first. Otherwise you will encounter some error 
like the following:

{noformat}
root@node0:~/apache-cassandra-3.6-SNAPSHOT# tools/bin/cassandra-stress -h
Error: Could not find or load main class org.apache.cassandra.stress.Stress
{noformat}

{noformat}
root@node0:~/apache-cassandra-3.6-SNAPSHOT# bin/sstableverify -h
Error: Could not find or load main class 
org.apache.cassandra.tools.StandaloneVerifier
{noformat}

The goal for CASSANDRA-10679 is still a good one: "For the most part all of our 
shell scripts do the same thing, load the cassandra.in.sh and then call 
something out of a jar. They should all look the same." But in this case, we 
should correct them all to look the same but making them to look local dir 
first.
