Kong setup with Cassandra 2.2.7

Just getting started with using Kong but I've been facing this issue.

I'm trying to setup Kong on a Mac and following the instructions from here:

Kong for Mac

I already have Cassandra 2.2.7 installed and running locally. I can connect to it through 'cqlsh' and create a keyspace etc.

But kong does not start when I run the following command:

kong start 

I've tried the --vv option and it gives me the following output:

I don't see any logs locally that tell me what exactly is the issue. I've looked on the web a fair bit but haven't found a solution.

Any thoughts on what I am missing?

Try with KONG_DATABASE=cassandra kong start to make it explicit that Kong should use Cassandra.

Or update the database property in the configuration file to cassandra.

On a side note Kong >= 0.9.2 has more descriptive errors.
