I am facing problem while trying to run cqlsh. Here is what I did:

1. I brought the tar ball files for both 1.1.7 and 1.2.0 version.

2. Unzipped and untarred it

3. Started Cassandra

4. And then tried starting cqlsh but I am getting the following error in both the versions:

Connection error: Invalid method name: ‘set_cql_version’

Before installing Datastax 1.1.7 and 1.2.0 cassandra, I had installed Cassandra through “sudo apt-get install Cassandra” on my ubuntu. Since it doesn’t have CQL support(at least I cant find it) so I thought of installing Datastax version of Cassandra but still no luck starting cqlsh so far. Any suggestion?

Thanks,

Anjani
