             Summary:  bin/cqlsh writes unwanted output to stderr while validating python version if python 2.6 is installed as system python
                 Key: CASSANDRA-16534
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16534
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Tool/cqlsh
            Reporter: Jon Meredith


The cqlsh.py script requires Python >= 2.7 on Cassandra 4.0 and checks to make sure it’s a supported version, looking for alternate python versions if the default is 2.6.  Unfortunately the check writes output to stderr that may confuse some users/tools consuming it.

{code}
python -c 'import os; print('\''{}.{}'\''.format(os.sys.version_info.major, os.sys.version_info.minor))'
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'major'
{code}


The output adds no value and can be suppressed  by redirecting to /dev/null
