Unable to prefix in astyanax read query

I have a scheme as follows:

 TimeStamp
 Device ID
 Device Name
 Device Owner
 Device location

I have created this column family using CQL and defined the primary key as 
(TimeStamp,Device ID, Device Name). Through a serializable object that has 
fields for DeviceID, name and a field name (which stores either Device Owner or 
Device Location). I have inserted some records using Astyanax.

As per my understanding, the columns for a row are created by combining Device 
ID, Device Name and field name as column name and the value to be the value for 
that particular field. Thus for a particular timestamp and device, the column 
names would be in the pattern (Device ID:Device Name: ...).

So I believe we can use these 2 fields as prefix to obtain all the entries for a 
particular time-device combination.

I am using the following query to obtain the results:

  RowSliceQuery<String, ApBaseData> query = adu.keyspace
  .prepareQuery(columnFamily)
  .getKeySlice(timeStamp)
  .withColumnRange(new RangeBuilder()
   .setStart(deviceID+deviceName+"_\u00000")
   .setEnd(deviceID+deviceName+"_\uffff")
   .setLimit(batch_size)
   .build());

But on executing the above query I get the following Exception:

BadRequestException: [host=localhost(127.0.0.1):9160, latency=6(6), 
attempts=1]InvalidRequestException(why:Not enough bytes to read value of 
component 0)

Can any one help to understand where am I going wrong?



Unable to prefix in astyanax read query

Hi,

This is a Astyanax issue that we've encountered.

I have a scheme as follows:

 TimeStamp
 Device ID
 Device Name
 Device Owner
 Device location

I have created this column family using CQL and defined the primary key as 
(TimeStamp,Device ID, Device Name). Through a serializable object that has 
fields for DeviceID, name and a field name (which stores either Device Owner
or 
Device Location). I have inserted some records using Astyanax.

As per my understanding, the columns for a row are created by combining
Device ID, Device Name and field name as column name and the value to be the
value for that particular field. Thus for a particular timestamp and device,
the column names would be in the pattern (Device ID:Device Name: ...).

So I believe we can use these 2 fields as prefix to obtain all the entries
for a particular time-device combination.

I am using the following query to obtain the results:

  RowSliceQuery<String, ApBaseData> query = adu.keyspace
  .prepareQuery(columnFamily)
  .getKeySlice(timeStamp)
  .withColumnRange(new RangeBuilder()
   .setStart(deviceID+deviceName+"_\u00000")
   .setEnd(deviceID+deviceName+"_\uffff")
   .setLimit(batch_size)
   .build());

But on executing the above query I get the following Exception:

BadRequestException: [host=localhost(127.0.0.1):9160, latency=6(6), 
attempts=1]InvalidRequestException(why:Not enough bytes to read value of 
component 0)

Can any one help to understand where am I going wrong?

What was the create table statement ?

Unless the CQL 3 create table statement specifies USE COMPACT_STORAGE it will use composites in the row keys and Astyanax may not be expected this. 

Unless astyanax specifically says it can write to CQL 3 tables it's best to only access them using CQL 3.

We ran into some similar errors in playorm development.  Basically, you
defined a composite probably but are not correctly using that composite.
I am not sure about queries though as we had the issue when saving data
(ie. Using deviceID+deviceName did not work and we had to create an full
blown composite object).  I think you need to read up on how astyanax
works with compositesŠ..I am not sure this is a cassandra question
reallyŠ.more of an astyanax one.
