Description

I have installed Cassandra 3.11.3 on macOS 10.14. openjdk version "11" 2018-09-25 OpenJDK Runtime Environment 18.9 (build 11+28) OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM 18.9 (build 11+28, mixed mode)

When I attempt to start cassandra, I get

I am guessing, something is not initialised somewhere or there is a Java-related incompatibility. Any ideas anyone?
