["Peter Halliday (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-786?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12890381#action_12890381 ] 

Peter Halliday commented on CASSANDRA-786:
------------------------------------------

Riptano also has a Yum repository for RPMS of cassandra that will install them in a binary mode.  You can access them at http://rpm.riptano.com/.  Pick the OS and version you are using.  Install riptano-release package and it will point to the repo for you to do a yum install cassandra.  Then you have to copy the storage-conf.xml from /usr/local/cassandra to /etc/cassandra and edit as necessary.  Also, cassandra.in.sh may need to be edited.

> RPM packages (and debs of course) would be nice,especially now that cassandra is maturing and gaining more interest.
> Lowering the threshold for getting cassandra running and getting started is also important.
> I think the RabbitMQ project has an admirable "Download and install" experience, not to mention the rather cute "2 min guarantee". Definitely a good inspiration.
> I've been studying Cloudera's Hadoop packages, which are very nice, and really appreciate the separate packages for configuration.
> This allows easy deployment of node configuration to a cluster.
> I'll have a spec file for building RHEL5 / CentOS packages ready for review and attached here in a bit.
