“Permanent Exception” connecting Titan 0.4.0 to Datastax AMI

问题

I'm new in the Titan realm so I'll keep this question as simple as possible.

Using the instructions provided here, I am able to successfully connect 1 linux node running Titan 0.3.2 to the Datastax/Cassandra instance as a backend.

I then downloaded Titan 0.4.0 and attempted the same, but receive a backend exception. For good measure, I changed the keyspace to in my .properties file to "titan4", which I then see reflected in the Cassandra backend.

However, despite successfully seeing the "titan4" keyspace created in Cassandra, I get a rather useless exception and stack trace. I'm a hobbyist, and very new at all technologies involved. Any help is greatly appreciated.

gremlin> g = TitanFactory.open('conf/titan-t2.properties')
Permanent exception during backend operation
Display stack trace?

EDIT:

Logging into Datastax image:

And Java version (I had to manually upgrade to 1.7 from 1.6 on the Linux AMI or Gremlin wouldn't run)

回答1:

I have been able to use Titan against DSE 4.6 which runs C* 2.0.11

Here's the latest testing from the Aurelius team -- http://s3.thinkaurelius.com/docs/titan/0.5.4/version-compat.html#d0e15023

Here are the steps I followed on my DSE box:

Pull and extract the binaries

wget http://s3.thinkaurelius.com/downloads/titan/titan-all-0.4.4.zip
unzip titan-all-0.4.4.zip 



cd titan-all-0.4.4
bin/gremlin.sh

Inside the Gremlin shell load the db:

g = TitanFactory.open('conf/titan-cassandra-es.properties')
GraphOfTheGodsFactory.load(g)

Some quick tests:

saturn = g.V('name','saturn').next()
saturn.getProperty('name')
saturn.map()
saturn.in('father').in('father').name

g.E.has('place',WITHIN,Geoshape.circle(37.97,23.72,50))
