Hi Chris and Team,

I am trying to install appscale from source on a Ubuntu Xenial (12 GB) system.

I followed the instruction on the website. However, appscale refuses to start and is stuck at "Waiting for head node to initialize...." for a really long time.Clearly, it is not going as expected. Is this environment tested? Thanks in advance for any help in this regard. Also, I have attached a few logs (both normal and with verbose) which I thought may be of use to you.

This happens to be an issue with JAVA_HOME setting. In etc/enviornment, incorrect JAVA_HOME was set which impacted cassandra startup.After fixing this, things were fine.

Was this an issue with install? or did I do something wrong?

Thanks

Good find, Prashant. What was JAVA_HOME set to? Was it an older openjdk installation? /opt/cassandra/cassandra/conf/cassandra-env.sh (which gets placed during the installation from AppDB/appscale/datastore/cassandra_env/templates) should be defining which Java environment to use, but perhaps we need to explicitly define JAVA_HOME there as well.

I think it was set to /usr/lib/jvm/java-8-oracle/jre/bin/java instead of the base jdk directory.
