Are you able to try adding the node again with logging set to DEBUG (in /etc/cassandra/log4j-server.properties) . (Please make sure the system directory is empty (/var/lib/cassandra/data/system) *NOTE* do not clear this dir if the node has already joined) It looks like the node has not detected the cluster yet for some reason. You can try passing the JVM option cassandra.ring_delay_ms (in cassandra-env.sh) to override the period it waits, the default is 30000 (30 secs). Could you add a ticket here https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA as well.
