Description

Can't run cassandra-cli as a role user this is what is returning:

[bin]$ ./cassandra-cli --host localhost --port 9160
Connected to localhost/9160
Exception in thread "main" java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/home/app/.cassandra.history (Permission denied)
at java.io.FileOutputStream.open(Native Method)
at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:179)
at java.io.FileOutputStream.<init>(FileOutputStream.java:131)
at java.io.FileWriter.<init>(FileWriter.java:73)
at jline.History.setHistoryFile(History.java:45)
at jline.History.<init>(History.java:37)
at org.apache.cassandra.cli.CliMain.main(CliMain.java:165)

I don't have acess to the roles home dir. Is there a way to specify where to place .cassandra.history? I can run cassandra-cli fine as myself but that is not the prefered way.
