i just installed cassandra 3.11 on a VM with Ubuntu 16.04 like it's described in the manual (https://cassandra.apache.org/download/). Before installing cassandra i installed the latest verion of openjdk. Now i'm at the point
"Verify that Cassandra is running by invoking nodetool status from the command line."
but this only gives a rather long error massage:
java.lang.instrument ASSERTION FAILED ***: "!errorOutstanding" with message transform method call failed at JPLISAgent.c line: 884
error: null
-- StackTrace --
java.lang.NullPointerException

So i'm not familiar with the programing behind nodetool and cassandra, can anyone help resolving this issue? Thanks in advance, Herman
It seems to be a openjdk-9 Problem, because if i use oracle8 jdk it gives the well known "Failed to connect to '127.0.0.1:7199'" respond.
