Step 3f of README_CASSANDRA.MD states:

cqlsh cluster1-dc1-service.cass-operator -u cluster1-superuser -p XXX

It should just be:

cqlsh cluster1-dc1-service.cass-operator -u cluster1-superuser -p XXX

The cloud instances we've provisioned to Workshop participants is locked down for security reasons and port 5000 cannot be used for the week 6 exercise. We need to deploy a workaround so participants can proceed with the exercises.

When I try to run week4-python I got an error, as the 'controller' package could not be located. What am I doing wrong?

Steps:

• goto Gitpod
• pip install Flask flask-cors cassandra-driver
• FLASK_ENV=development FLASK_APP=getting_started_with_astra.py flask run

Result:
gitpod /workspace/getting-started-with-astra-python $ FLASK_ENV=development FLASK_APP=getting_started_with_astra.py flask run

Thanks for your help!

Not sure if the java week3-AppDev-crud/crud-java/target content has been intentionally committed to the repo. If not could this be removed?

Optional

I got an authentication error when Cassandra is local, with USE_ASTRA=false.

Trying to figure out a solution I created a fork and added some code, as shown below:

bampli/t1-astra@4cd61c5

The idea was to fulfill Cassandra security requirements but still got an error:

Any hints? How to connect with local Cassandra cluster with Kind?

In the text:

We will create a Kubernetes cluster based on the following configuration 1 master, 5 workers to be able to spawn some multi nodes clusters.

The URL link for "following configuration" currently is:

https://github.com/DataStax-Academy/cassandra-workshop-series/blob/master/week5-Cass-in-k8s/01-kind-config.yaml

which resulted the 404 error.

I believe you meant to say:

https://github.com/DataStax-Academy/cassandra-workshop-series/blob/master/week5-Cass-in-k8s/setup-your-cluster/01-kind-config.yaml

My 2 cents!
