I've been trying to install apache cassandra on windows 7 64bit, i followed the video tutorial of the planetcassandra virtual training . when i try to execute on the terminal nodetool status with the ops center opened it gives me the following error:
C:\Program Files\DataStax Community\apache-cassandra\bin>nodetool status
Starting NodeTool

Could not find the main class: org.apache.cassandra.tools.NodeCmd. Program will exit.
what could be the problem?can it be that i dont see any active node in the opscenter? thanks in advance
