Trouble restoring with sstableloader

[Jim Miller <mi...@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I've been running into the following issue while trying to restore a C*
database via sstableloader:

Could not retrieve endpoint ranges:
org.apache.thrift.transport.TTransportException: Frame size (352518912)
larger than max length (15728640)!
java.lang.RuntimeException: Could not retrieve endpoint ranges:

        ... 2 more

This seems odd since the frame size thrift is asking for is over 336 MB.

This is happening using Cassandra 2.0.12 | Thrift protocol 19.39.0

Any advice?

Thanks!
