[jira] [Comment Edited] (CASSANDRA-6162) Cassandra does not start on Ubuntu 13.04 RUssian

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6162?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13879994#comment-13879994 ]

--------------------------------------------------------------------

confirmed, this is the case for German version, too. Installed directly from the deb-package from the Apache site.

The problem lies in line 22 of cassandra-env.sh, in the awk expression which expects the result of  free -m to contain "Mem:" which is not the case for localized ubuntu versions.
This might be fixed by searching for ":" only and returning only the first line with grep, i.e.: 
system_memory_in_mb=`free -m | awk '/:/ {print $2}' | grep -i "" --max-count=1`

However, i'm not a shell scripter and so this must be tested elsewhere, too.
