Description

If you install 1.2.1 when there are existing data directories, the scrub operation fails, throwing this exception:

ERROR [main] 2013-01-29 15:05:06,564 FileUtils.java (line 373) Stopping the gossiper and the RPC server
ERROR [main] 2013-01-29 15:05:06,564 CassandraDaemon.java (line 387) Exception encountered during startup
java.lang.IllegalStateException: No configured daemon

This condition should produce a more reasonable exception.
