What's the stack trace you see? At the time, I was thinking column scan not row scan as perhaps your code or priam's code was doing a column slice within a row set and the columns are sorted by Integer while priam is passing in UTF8 or vice-versa. Ie. Do we know if this is a column sorting issue or a row one?

Andre 2013/4/17 Hiller, Dean <dean.hil...@nrel.gov<mailto:dean.hil...@nrel.gov>> I literally jut replied to your stackoverflow comment then saw this email. I need the whole stack trace. My guess is the ColFamily is configured for one sort method where map/reduce is using another or something when querying but that's just a guess.
