             Summary: Cassandra 2.0.x validates Thrift columns incorrectly and causes InvalidRequestException
                 Key: CASSANDRA-6892
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6892
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
            Reporter: Christian Spriegel


I just upgrade my local dev machine to Cassandra 2.0, which causes one of my automated tests to fail now. With the latest 1.2.x it was working fine.

The Exception I get on my client (using Hector) is:
{code}
me.prettyprint.hector.api.exceptions.HInvalidRequestException: InvalidRequestException(why:(Expected 8 or 0 byte long (21)) [MDS_0][MasterdataIndex][key2] failed validation)

{code}

The schema of my column family is:
{code}
create column family MasterdataIndex with
    compression_options = {sstable_compression:SnappyCompressor, chunk_length_kb:64} and
    comparator = UTF8Type and
    key_validation_class = 'CompositeType(UTF8Type,LongType)' and
    default_validation_class = BytesType;
{code}

>From the error message it looks like Cassandra is trying to validate the value with the key-validator! (My value in this case it 21 bytes long)


I studied the Cassandra 2.0 code and found something wrong. It seems in CFMetaData.addDefaultKeyAliases it passes the KeyValidator into ColumnDefinition.partitionKeyDef. Inside ColumnDefinition the validator is expected to be the value validator!

In CFMetaData:
{code}
    private List<ColumnDefinition> addDefaultKeyAliases(List<ColumnDefinition> pkCols)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < pkCols.size(); i++)
        {
            if (pkCols.get(i) == null)
            {
                Integer idx = null;
                AbstractType<?> type = keyValidator;
                if (keyValidator instanceof CompositeType)
                {
                    idx = i;
                    type = ((CompositeType)keyValidator).types.get(i);
                }
                // For compatibility sake, we call the first alias 'key' rather than 'key1'. This
                // is inconsistent with column alias, but it's probably not worth risking breaking compatibility now.
                ByteBuffer name = ByteBufferUtil.bytes(i == 0 ? DEFAULT_KEY_ALIAS : DEFAULT_KEY_ALIAS + (i + 1));
                ColumnDefinition newDef = ColumnDefinition.partitionKeyDef(name, type, idx); // type is LongType in my case, as it uses keyValidator !!!
                column_metadata.put(newDef.name, newDef);
                pkCols.set(i, newDef);
            }
        }
        return pkCols;
    }
...
    public AbstractType<?> getValidator() // in ThriftValidation this is expected to be the value validator!
    {
        return validator;
    }
{code}
