Add the Apache repository of Cassandra to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cassandra.sources.list
, for example for the latest 3.11 version:
echo "deb https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/debian 311x main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list.d/cassandra.sources.list
curl https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/KEYS | sudo apt-key add -
sudo apt-get update
GPG error: http://www.apache.org 311x InRelease: The following signatures couldn't be verified because the public key is not available: NO_PUBKEY A278B781FE4B2BDA
Then add the public key A278B781FE4B2BDA as follows:
sudo apt-key adv --keyserver pool.sks-keyservers.net --recv-key A278B781FE4B2BDA
and repeat sudo apt-get update
. The actual key may be different, you get it from the error message itself. For a full list of Apache contributors public keys, you can refer to https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/KEYS.
sudo apt-get install cassandra
sudo service cassandra start
and stop it with sudo service cassandra stop

(Not all versions of Apache Cassandra are available, since building RPMs is a recent addition to the project.)
Add the Apache repository of Cassandra to /etc/yum.repos.d/cassandra.repo
, for example for the latest 3.11 version:
[cassandra] name=Apache Cassandra baseurl=https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/redhat/311x/ gpgcheck=1 repo_gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://downloads.apache.org/cassandra/KEYS
sudo yum install cassandra
Start Cassandra (will not start automatically):
service cassandra start
Systemd based distributions may require to run systemctl daemon-reload
once to make Cassandra available as a systemd service. This should happen automatically by running the command above.
Make Cassandra start automatically after reboot:
chkconfig cassandra on
Please note that official RPMs for Apache Cassandra only have been available recently and are not tested thoroughly on all platforms yet. We appreciate your feedback and support and ask you to post details on any issues in the corresponding Jira ticket.
Development is done in the Apache Git repository. To check out a copy:
