Cassandra - Exception (java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError) encountered during startup: Can't find dependent libraries( jna626409071981896679.dll)

Question

I am trying to install Cassandra 3.11.8 on Windows 10 Pro OS 8GB RAM machine. I have installed JDK 1.8.0u271 and Python 2.7.17 on the same.

I have added the system variables path for the JDK, Python, and Cassandra.

I have unzipped the Cassandra 3.11.8 file and added it under the c drive.

To start the Cassandra, I have typed the command cassandra at the bin location of the Cassandra file in the command prompt ( Opened the command prompt by clicking 'Run as administrator).

I am getting the following exception.

C:\>cd apache-cassandra-3.11.8

Please let me know if anyone knows the solution for the same. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

For me, the same issue was occurring for the embedded Cassandra dependency in the Mac M1, below is the dependency I used.

<groupId>org.cassandraunit</groupId>
<artifactId>cassandra-unit</artifactId>
<version>4.3.1.0</version>

The above error is fixed when I changed the JDK to adoptopenjdk-8.jdk from azul zulu version 1.8 in Intellij->File->Project Structure->SDK.

Answer 2

The most common cause of this issue is a non-compliant JDK from a vendor. For example, lots of users reported running into this problem with AdoptOpenJDK.

Try installing Java from Oracle or OpenJDK instead and see how you go. Cheers!
