<p>I am using the following chart to deploy a Cassandra cluster to my gke cluster.
<a href="https://github.com/k8ssandra/k8ssandra/tree/main/charts/k8ssandra" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://github.com/k8ssandra/k8ssandra/tree/main/charts/k8ssandra</a></p>
<p>However, the statefulset stuck in state 1/2 (the cassandra container status is always unhealthy)</p>
<p>Here's my values.yaml</p>
<pre><code>cassandra:
  auth:
    superuser: 
      secret: cassandra-admin-secret
  clusterName: cassandra-cluster
  version: &quot;4.0.0&quot;
  cassandraLibDirVolume:
    storageClass: standard
    size: 5Gi
  allowMultipleNodesPerWorker: true
  resources:
    requests:
      cpu: 500m
      memory: 2Gi
    limits:
      cpu: 500m
      memory: 2Gi
  datacenters:
  - name: dc1
    size: 1
    racks:
    - name: default 

stargate:
  enabled: true
  replicas: 1
  heapMB: 256
  cpuReqMillicores: 200
  cpuLimMillicores: 500

kube-prometheus-stack:
  enabled: False
</code></pre>
<pre><code>NAME                                                READY   STATUS     RESTARTS   AGE
cassandra-cluster-dc1-default-sts-0          1/2     Running    0          77m
</code></pre>
<p>And then I describe the pod</p>
<pre><code>Events:
  Type     Reason     Age                    From     Message
  ----     ------     ----                   ----     -------
  Warning  Unhealthy  2m11s (x478 over 81m)  kubelet  Readiness probe failed: HTTP probe failed with statuscode: 500
</code></pre>
<p>Finally, I print the log of the <strong>cassandra</strong> container.</p>
<pre><code>INFO  [nioEventLoopGroup-2-2] 2022-04-20 11:09:35,711 Cli.java:617 - address=/10.12.11.58:51000 url=/api/v0/metadata/endpoints status=500 Internal Server Error

</code></pre>
<p>and the logs of <strong>server-system-logger</strong></p>
<pre><code>tail: cannot open '/var/log/cassandra/system.log' for reading: No such file or directory
</code></pre>
<p>How can I solve this problem? Thanks.</p>

<p>The message in the <code>cassandra</code> container says it should resolve itself once Cassandra is up and running which is correct.</p>
<p>Similarly no logs are available with the <code>server-system-logger</code> container until Cassandra has started and more precisely, not until the logging framework has initialized.</p>
