Unable to start titan server with embedded cassandra and rexter

Question

I am trying to run Titan with embedded cassandra and rexster. Downloaded Titan distribution titan-all-0.3.2 and unpacked on a linux box. After unpacking this is what i ran the command

$ ./bin/titan.sh config/titan-server-rexster.xml config/titan-server-cassandra.properties

This is what i see in the logs After starting RexPro services its unable to deploy and start grizzly. Has anyone had this issue?

Exception stack trace:

Answer 1

There were some packaging problems in some of the 0.3.2 zip files. You basically need to replace a jar file or two around Jersey to get it to work (or I think use the titan-cassandra distribution instead of titan-all).

You can read more about the issue here and its solution (also reported here), but the answer is:

You should be able to patch 0.3.2 by replacing this jar file in the Titan lib directory:

jersey-core-1.8.jar

with:

jersey-core-1.17 (http://repo1.maven.org/maven2/com/sun/jersey/jersey-core/1.17/jersey-core-1.17.jar)
