David Capwell commented on CASSANDRA-15549:
---
Using grep I found the following
https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/trunk/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/utils/NativeLibrary.java#L201
Looking through my chat history I found the root log which triggered this JIRA
{code}
JVM memory (ENOMEM). This can result in part of the JVM being swapped out,
especially with mmapped I/O enabled. Increase RLIMIT_MEMLOCK or run Cassandra
as root.
{code}
This was on a 4.0 test deployment.
I thought I saw more but my history only shows that line, and grep only sees
that single log.
Ill rename the JIRA to reflect that this isn't all over the place but actually
one specific logger.

Some specifics on the "several exceptions/logs in the code which recommend users to run Cassandra as root", which versions/branches, etc. from OP would help. I only did a quick grep in trunk to see what I could see. > Remove all recommendations to run Cassandra as root > --- > > Key: CASSANDRA-15549 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15549 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Local/Other >Reporter: David Capwell >Priority: Normal > Fix For: 4.0-alpha > > > There are several exceptions/logs in the code which recommend users to run > Cassandra as root, should remove these since users really shouldn’t be > running Cassandra as root. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org

This shows fixed for 3.2, so should be in the 3.11 and trunk branches already, in order to prevent starting up as UID=0. > Remove all recommendations to run Cassandra as root > --- > > Key: CASSANDRA-15549 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-15549 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: Local/Other >Reporter: David Capwell >Priority: Normal > Fix For: 4.0-alpha > > > There are several exceptions/logs in the code which recommend users to run > Cassandra as root, should remove these since users really shouldn’t be > running Cassandra as root. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.3.4#803005) - To unsubscribe, e-mail: commits-unsubscr...@cassandra.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: commits-h...@cassandra.apache.org
