You can copy the Bean definition from below. Make sure you get the necessary Imports in place (Use Alt+Shift+O in Windows for applying quick fix to imports).

@Bean
public CqlSessionBuilderCustomizer astraProperties) {
Path bundle =
return builder ->
}

Good to see this video, I am going to watch now.

Hi koushik, watching this video i have a question that made me curious, why was it need to create a configuration properties file for datastax which had the bundle connect property used for connect

[supreethhs]

Hi Koushik, i am following the series but I ran into an erroneous condition, how to post the error to you to know what went wrong in following

[AbhishekVaid]

This Datastax configuration isn't working at all. I've tried multiple things but I keep getting [s0] Authentication error (AuthenticationException: Authentication error on node

[MohdMahebub]

@Koushik sir, I want to integrate spring boot application with ScyllaDB. How can i do that?? Could you please help me in this???

[womanwithtoomanyhobbies]

This astra dashboard does not give secure bundle anymore

[vpezzano]

Hi koushik. I noticed that commenting out all the properties under astra.db, the application is still able to connect to the database. What's the purpose of those properties?

[sauravsingh]

I'm getting this error for my secure-bundle.zip, its not able to create a bundle object out of it:
... 37 common frames omitted
Caused by: Invalid bundle: missing file config.json

Has anyone faced the same? How can it be resolved?

[ravikiran]

my datax.astra is not showing organization.settings option?

[SaurabhGupta-qync]

Hi, i am geeting below excepation while connecting to cassandra db from my spring boot application:

Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: Error creating bean with name 'cassandraSessionFactory' defined in class path resource Invocation of init method failed; nested exception is query 'SELECT * FROM system_schema.keyspaces' timed out after PT2S


help me to get a resolution for this?

[ahmadmujtaba]

i am having still error while I have done all the things like you did in this video same same

[ilangrapel]

I am able to get through everything in this video when working from home, but on my school network, I am unable to connect to datastax from Java Spring.

Specifically, I get this error:

2022-04-22 11:41:18.616 WARN 1824 --- [ restartedMain] : Exception encountered during context initialization - cancelling refresh attempt: Error creating bean with name Unsatisfied dependency expressed through constructor parameter 0; nested exception is Error creating bean with name 'cassandraSession' defined in class path resource Bean instantiation via factory method failed; nested exception is Failed to instantiate Factory method 'cassandraSession' threw exception; nested exception is Unable to connect to cloud metadata service. Please make sure your cluster is not parked or terminated

With such small code sessions, this course will be quite long...
