[jira] [Comment Edited] (CASSANDRA-12215) NullPointerException during Compaction

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-12215?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=15386006#comment-15386006 ]

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Tyler and Philip, I was looking at the changes to labels and summaries that y'all made and wanted to clarify a bit:

This is not only a failure in cqlsh. When we get in this state (something related to compacting tombstoned data with static columns), 
  * Reads for certain partitions fail through the native protocol (e.g. not just cqlsh), with the same error (we're using the ruby driver)
  * Manual and automated compaction jobs fail

Hau is going to update this ticket with more information later; currently we're doing the ops and backend work to abandon the use of static columns, which seems to be an effective workaround so that we can move forward with development. Once we're stable again, we'll do our best to work with y'all to reproduce.

> Since the table is pretty small, I can do a copy to, truncate the table, and copy from, and the table is fine.  But my concern is if compaction fails to remove those rows, and the table will eventually be very large in a production environment, the copy, truncate, and copy will no longer be an option.
