Не может open,/var/log/cassandra/gc.log из-за отклоненного Разрешения

Для чего служат/var/log файлы? Когда я пытаюсь выполнить cassandra на своей Ubuntu 16.04

OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: Cannot open file /var/log/cassandra/gc.log due to Permission denied

Позже

19:47:58,887 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender[SYSTEMLOG] - Active log file name: /var/log/cassandra/system.log
19:47:58,887 |-INFO in ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender[SYSTEMLOG] - File property is set to [/var/log/cassandra/system.log]
19:47:58,889 |-ERROR in ch.qos.logback.core.rolling.RollingFileAppender[SYSTEMLOG] - openFile(/var/log/cassandra/system.log,true) call failed. java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/log/cassandra/system.log (Permission denied)
    at java.io.FileNotFoundException: /var/log/cassandra/system.log (Permission denied)

Почему у меня есть эти проблемы? Это - мой Java

java -version
openjdk version "1.8.0_151"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_151-8u151-b12-0ubuntu0.16.04.2-b12)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.151-b12, mixed mode)

Это полномочия
