Hi Mehdi,
Did you set it same for all nodes in the cluster?
Please check the space between the key and value and also before the key.
Key (data_files_directories, commitlog_directory, saved_caches_directory).
Check the write permission of the parent directory too.
Hope this helps!
Kind regards,
Rajesh Radhakrishnan

Subject: data file directory path customization
Hi all,
With the new apache cassandra 3.7 version, It is possible to setup a
customizable path for data_files, saved_caches and commit_log in the
configuration file (cassandra.yaml)?
I ask the question because during some test, I wanted to setup the path for :
- data_files_directories
- commitlog_directory
- saved_caches_directory
After configuring this 3 variables (parameters) in the cassandra-yaml, I had
the following issues:
[cassandra@test bin]$ ./cassandra -f
18:54:22.443 [main] INFO o.a.c.config.YamlConfigurationLoader - Configuration
location: file:/u00/app/cassandra/admin/CSD1/etc/cassandra.yaml
18:54:22.447 [main] DEBUG o.a.c.config.YamlConfigurationLoader - Loading

The first issue was for the data_files_directories, after that I commented it
out in the cassandra.yaml, and I had the same issue for the commitlog_directory
parameter.
Below the setting of my 2 variables:
***************************************************
data_file_directories:
- /u01/cassandradata/CSD1/data
.....
commitlog_directory: /u01/cassandradata/CSD1/commitlog
***************************************************************************
I also tested the syntax with double quote " " -> Same issue
Many thanks in advance for your feedback
Best Regards
Mehdi Bada
