title: PoolTimeoutException when connecting to Cassandra via Astyanax
body: <p>I am trying to connect to local cassandra using astyanax, but constantly getting  PoolTimeoutException. I am able to connect to cassandra using cli or hector client.
  Any idea what am I doing wrong?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks.</p>
  
  <p>My code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>val context = new AstyanaxContext.Builder()
          .forCluster("cluster")
          .forKeyspace(keyspace)
          .withAstyanaxConfiguration(
                  new AstyanaxConfigurationImpl()
                      .setDiscoveryType(NodeDiscoveryType.NONE)
          )
          .withConnectionPoolConfiguration(
                  new ConnectionPoolConfigurationImpl("ConnPool")
                      .setPort(9160)
                      .setMaxConnsPerHost(1)
                      .setMaxBlockedThreadsPerHost(1)
                      .setSeeds("127.0.0.1:9160")
                      .setConnectTimeout(10000)
          )
          .withConnectionPoolMonitor(new CountingConnectionPoolMonitor())
          .buildKeyspace(ThriftFamilyFactory.getInstance())
      context.start()
      return context.getEntity()
