Verification

• My brew doctor output says Your system is ready to brew. and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I ran brew update and am still able to reproduce my issue.
• I have resolved all warnings from brew doctor and that did not fix my problem.
• I searched for recent similar issues at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues?q=is%3Aissue and found no duplicates.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running brew commands)

shell
Then I try to start cassandra manually, it said jamm-0.3.2.jar file is missing

$ JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk-11.0.9.jdk/Contents/Home /opt/homebrew/opt/cassandra/bin/cassandra -f
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: Option UseConcMarkSweepGC was deprecated in version 9.0 and will likely be removed in a future release.

Cassandra 5 should be using jamm-0.4.0.jar.

One possibility is some stale paths within /opt/homebrew/etc/cassandra/ files due to upgrading from Cassandra 4 to 5.

Files in the etc path are not automatically modified by brew as they are often user-modifiable configuration files.

If you see any .default files there, then those are the newest copies of the non-.default files. Can diff them to see changes and overwrite old files.

---

Someone may need to check if files like cassandra-env.sh should be user-modifiable or if they should be overridden on upgrade.

Same issue here.

Quick workaround, create a symbol link named jam-0.3.2.jar:

cd /opt/homebrew/Cellar/cassandra/5.0.2/libexec/
ln -s jamm-0.4.0.jar jamm-0.3.2.jar

Seeing same issue here. Tried to create the symbol link to jamm-0.3.2.jar, cassandra service can be started, but still not able to access db.
