Unable to start Cassandra DSC on Mac - Error starting local jmx server

Am trying to run Cassandra on my Mac OSX 10.10. I've installed dsc-cassandra-2.1.9. Some of the cassandra.yaml settings are: listen_address: 127.0.0.1 rpc_address: 127.0.0.1 rpc_port: 9160

However when I start cassandra, it fails: 

$ ./bin/cassandra 
...

Could anyone please help with fixing this issue?

updates to above problem --

after setting the JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=127.0.0.1" as suggested in the answer below, cassandra seems to be running, however the nodetool doesn't seem to be reporting correct status:

And cqlsh seems to be working:

NameNotFoundException indicates host/port are ok but rmi URL is off. Maybe you can find some info in C* startup log. BTW, cqlsh uses native transport on 9042 so it doesn't mean too much for JMX. – treehouse

Faced the same error and below is the solution.

Stop cassandra ps -ef | grep cassandra | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}' | xargs kill -9

In cassandra-env.sh modify the following:-

  1. Uncomment JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=" and change to JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=127.0.0.1"

  2. Change LOCAL_JMX=yes to LOCAL_JMX=no

  3. Change true to false JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false"

If still you see any issues check if the port specified by JMX_PORT="XXX" is occupied or not. OR Simply you can change it to JMX_PORT="9909" and restart cassandra.

  1. Verify that nothing else is running on port 7199. You can e.g. also use a different port for JMX by modifying JMX_PORT in cassandra-env.sh.

  2. Look into cassandra-env.sh and try modifying the following line:

    JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=<public name>"
