I have implemented counters in a limited capacity to record the number
of 'hits' that are received from a given ISO country code. CH for
example, or GB. Using phpcassa, these counts are incremented ... all
works great, except, due to a programmatic error, it was possible to
send a "null" country code across and eventually it ends up in
Cassandra. I am unable to remove the null column.
This is being cleaned up on my end in the code... but found I could
reproduce through the CLI
[default@sdo] incr counters[ascii('EU')][ascii('null')];
Value incremented.
[default@sdo] list counters;
Using default limit of 100
-------------------
RowKey: 4555
=> (counter=6e756c6c, value=1)
1 Row Returned.
[default@sdo] del counters[ascii('EU')][ascii('null')];
org.apache.cassandra.db.marshal.MarshalException: cannot parse
'FUNCTION_CALL' as hex bytes
[default@sdo]
How to remove a null column or a column called null...?
