Just a shot in the dark, but what is your setting of vm.max_map_count in /etc/sysctl.conf ?
It is recommended to set it to: vm.max_map_count = 1048575 Source: https://docs.datastax.com/en/landing_page/doc/landing_page/recommendedSettingsLinux.html We saw a similar problem in the past where mmap failed and we added a check to emit warning as a part of https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13008.
