Cassandra cqlsh - connection refused
Solution 1:
You need to edit cassandra.yaml
on the node you are trying to connect to and set the node ip address for rpc_address
and listen_address
and restart Cassandra.
rpc_address
is the address on which Cassandra listens to the client calls.
listen_address
is the address on which Cassandra listens to the other Cassandra nodes.
Solution 2:
Try to change the rpc_address
to point to the node's IP instead of 0.0.0.0 and specify the IP while connecting to the cqlsh, as if the IP is 10.0.1.34 and the rpc_port
left to the default value 9160 then the following should work:
cqlsh 10.0.1.34 9160
Or:
cqlsh 10.0.1.34
Also make sure that start_rpc is set to true in /etc/cassandra/cassandra.yaml configuration file.
