Summary: Server.java swallows the reason why binding failed Key: CASSANDRA-14544 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-14544 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Bug Reporter: James Roper On line 164 of {{org/apache/cassandra/transport/Server.java}}, the cause of a failure to bind to the server port is swallowed: [https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/06209037ea56b5a2a49615a99f1542d6ea1b2947/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/transport/Server.java#L163-L164] {code:java} if (!bindFuture.awaitUninterruptibly().isSuccess()) throw new IllegalStateException(String.format("Failed to bind port %d on %s.", socket.getPort(), socket.getAddress().getHostAddress())); {code} So we're told that the bind failed, but we're left guessing as to why. The cause of the bind failure should be passed to the {{IllegalStateException}}, so that we can then proceed with debugging, like so: {code:java} if (!bindFuture.awaitUninterruptibly().isSuccess()) throw new IllegalStateException(String.format("Failed to bind port %d on %s.", socket.getPort(), socket.getAddress().getHostAddress()), bindFuture.cause()); {code} -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
