Question

How can I upgrade the cassandra version and thrift version in Brisk?

Is there any tutorials kind of stuffs avalailble? I changed the build.properties file but on build, the version I mentioned couldn’t be located at any repository.

Im trying to upgrade because of Cassandra Insertion Error
this issue im facing. I hope the comment mentioned there helps

What is the latest version of cassandra that brisk supports?

In support forums I see people mentioning, replace the jars. I don’t understand where should I do that.

Thanks for Help in advance

Answer 1

Finally I found the way to upgrade Brisk’s cassandra version.
I Downloaded apache-cassandra-0.8.6-bin from apache site.
Copied

lib/apache-cassandra-0.8.6.jar and lib/apache-cassandra-thrift-0.8.6.jar

to

brisk-1.0~beta2-bin/resources/cassandra/lib/

and removed the older version’s cassandra and thrift jars

and just restarted brisk with ./brisk cassandra

and tried this

 $ ./nodetool -h x.x.x.x version

    ReleaseVersion: 0.8.6

So, I hope there won’t any compatability issues, since in a forum a brisk dev mentioned tat brisk core works independently against cassandra core. But I’m yet to know the way to do it by building from src rather replacing jars in bin
