Cassandra - ubuntu 16.04 :: Failed to start cassandra.service: Unit cassandra.service not found

I'm using ubuntu 16.04.I was trying to install Cassandra. But I'm getting some unknown issues. Could you please help me to solve it.

I followed the Apache-Cassandra Instructions to install Cassandra 3.6

I installed python 2.7 on this machine.

When I use the command to see the status.

sudo service cassandra status

I'm getting this error

Cassandra.service
   Loaded: not-found (Reason: No such file or directory)
   Active: inactive (dead)

I'm pretty sure, I was not doing as root.

I installed Cassandra in ubuntu 14.04 before one year without any problem. And worked well on different projects. Now getting these issues.

If I use the following command

sudo service cassandra start

I'm getting this error.

Failed to start cassandra.service: Unit cassandra.service not found.

Is there any problem with python and Cassandra version? Please help to solve these issues. Please suggest me the best way.

Try to reinstall Cassandra via next commands:

sudo apt-get purge cassandra

then 

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install cassandra

And use the latest version of Cassandra - 3.9, because the previous has a problem with cqlsh if you have Python 2.7.11+.
