Description

The directory I tried to use with the sstablekeys tool is <path>/apache-cassandra-2.1.0-rc4/data/data/music/playlists-e80c033011bd11e49269bb45d4dd025b/music-playlists-ka-1-Data.db

Results of attempting to use the command:

sstablekeys <path>2.1rc4/apache-cassandra-2.1.0-rc4/data/data/music/playlists-e80c033011bd11e49269bb45d4dd025b/music-playlists-ka-1-Data.db
