I have installed and started up Cassandra server(1.0.8). I can connect to the server using the CLI application. But as soon as I try to create a keyspace "twissandra" following the step from CassandraCLI

I end up getting the following error
enter image description here

I can see the cassandra.yaml file in "config" directory of the installation.

EDIT – THE ANSWER

OK So after a few days of short chitty chats with libjack. The error was tracked down.

REM set CLASSPATH="%CASSANDRA_HOME%\conf"

The line above is a remark (comment if you may) I had to go through the whole BAT file line by line before finally removing the REM clause.

    The cassandra.yaml is expected to be found in the classpath. By default, the cassandra.bat (my version from 1.07 zip) adds the $CASSANDRA_HOME\conf directory to the classpath (as well as other necessary Jars)

    If CASSANDRA_HOME is not set, it uses the directory above the script location.

    To test, perhaps modify the cassandra.bat to echo out all the commands and see where things get messed up.
