This has been an issue Ihave been trying to resolve for over 36 hours. I added Cassandra spa out-of-the-box to spring boot application. It kept on throwing the same error over and over again. I have tried all the recommendations on SO, nothing worked. This is just so annoying. I'm using Spring-boot 2.4.5, JDK 16 spring.data.cassandra.contact-points=127.0.0.1 spring.data.cassandra.username=cassandra spring.data.cassandra.password=cassandra spring.data.cassandra.keyspace=accountservicedb spring.data.cassandra.port=9042 spring.data.cassandra.schema-action=NONE spring.data.cassandra.local-datacenter=datacenter1
