> I fell in byte order mark trap trying to execute a CQL script through CQLSH. 
> The file contained the simple (plus BOM)
> {noformat}
> CREATE KEYSPACE IF NOT EXISTS xobni WITH replication = {'class': 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor': '3'}  AND durable_writes = true; 
> -- and another "CREATE TABLE bucket_flags" query
> {noformat}
> I executed the script
> {noformat}
> [~]$ cqlsh --file /home/selimanolis/Schema/patches/setup.cql 
> /home/selimanolis/Schema/patches/setup.cql:2:Invalid syntax at char 1
> /home/selimanolis/Schema/patches/setup.cql:2:  CREATE KEYSPACE IF NOT EXISTS test WITH replication = {'class': 'SimpleStrategy', 'replication_factor': '3'}  AND durable_writes = true; 
> /home/selimanolis/Schema/patches/setup.cql:2:  ^
> /home/selimanolis/Schema/patches/setup.cql:22:ConfigurationException: <ErrorMessage code=2300 [Query invalid because of configuration issue] message="Cannot add column family 'bucket_flags' to non existing keyspace 'test'.">
> {noformat}
> I realized much later that the file had a BOM which was seemingly screwing with how CQLSH parsed the file.
> It would be nice to have CQLSH ignore the BOM when processing files.
