I am getting the below error while running the cqlsh in cassandra 2.2.10 ?? Can somebody help me to pass this hurdle:

[root@rac1 site-packages]# $CASSANDRA_PATH/bin/cqlsh

Python Cassandra driver not installed, or not on PYTHONPATH. You might try “pip install cassandra-driver”.

Python: /usr/local/bin/python Module load path: [‘/opt/cassandra/apache-cassandra-2.2.10/bin/../lib/six-1.7.3-py2.py3-none-any.zip’, ‘/opt/cassandra/apache-cassandra-2.2.10/bin/../lib/futures-2.1.6-py2.py3-none-any.zip’, ‘/opt/cassandra/apache-cassandra-2.2.10/bin/../lib/cassandra-driver-internal-only-3.5.0.post0-d8d0456.zip/cassandra-driver-3.5.0.post0-d8d0456’, ‘/opt/cassandra/apache-cassandra-2.2.10/bin’, ‘/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages’, ‘/usr/local/lib/python27.zip’, ‘/usr/local/lib/python2.7’, ‘/usr/local/lib/python2.7/plat-linux2’, ‘/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-tk’, ‘/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-old’, ‘/usr/local/lib/python2.7/lib-dynload’]

Cassandra uses the python driver bundled in-tree in a zip file. If your Python runtime was not built with zlib support, it cannot use the zip archive in the PYTHONPATH. Either install the driver directly (pip install) as suggested, or put a correctly configured Python runtime in your path.
