[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-7125) Fail to start by default if Commit Log fails to validate any messages

["Sylvain Lebresne (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-7125?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13986474#comment-13986474 ] 

Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-7125:
---------------------------------------------

bq. and introduce a cassandra.yaml option that permits overriding the default behaviour

<bikeshedding>I feel a command line override flag (i.e. something like -Dcassandra.commitlog.skipbrokenentries=true) would be more appropriate here</bikeshedding>. But agreed on  changing the default behavior otherwise.

> Current behaviour can be pretty dangerous, and also has a tendency to mask bugs during development. We should change the behaviour to default to failure if anything unexpected happens, and introduce a cassandra.yaml option that permits overriding the default behaviour.
