#38495: cassandra can't be started using launchctl ------------------------+-------------------------------- Reporter: alexs@… | Owner: macports-tickets@… Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: cassandra | ------------------------+-------------------------------- Description changed by cal@…: Old description:

This appears to be due to at least 2 different bugs.

Firstly there's this one https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34221

java -version hangs in some circumstances if __CFPREFERENCES_AVOID_DAEMON=1 is not set. This is fixed by adding

``` <string>env</string> <string>__CFPREFERENCES_AVOID_DAEMON=1</string> ```

to the LaunchDaemon plist.

The next problem is (I think) that the /opt/local/share/java/cassandra-1.2.2/conf/cassandra-env.sh script requires /usr/sbin/sysctl but the PATH it's running in under launchd doesn't have /usr/sbin/.

Manually setting the PATH in the plist again fixes this but it seems like there's probably a nicer way to do that...
