For the online free course of DataStax DS210, it seems learners have to setup virtual boxes or to use cloud services in order to setup a three nodes cluster for experimenting, but it looks like the DSE cassandra still cannot be started due to some internal errors.
For a beginner and non-java programmer, it's beyond my capability to solve this. Will anyone be kind enough to take a look of the error logging to see what's going wrong? Thanks in advance!
The error reads
