When running Cassandra from trunk/master, I see a drop keyspace command hang at the CQL prompt.
To reproduce: 1) Removed my cassandra data directory entirely 2) Fired up cqlsh, and executed the following CQL commands in succession: bone@zen:~/git/boneill42/cassandra-> bin/cqlsh Connected to Test Cluster at localhost:9160. [cqlsh 4.1.0 | Cassandra 2.1-SNAPSHOT | CQL spec 3.1.1 | Thrift protocol 19.38.0] Use HELP for help. cqlsh> describe keyspaces; system system_traces cqlsh> create keyspace test_keyspace with replication =3D {'class':'SimpleS= trategy', 'replication_factor':'1'}; cqlsh> describe keyspaces; system test_keyspace system_traces cqlsh> drop keyspace test_keyspace; <THIS HANGS INDEFINITELY> thoughts? user error? worth filing an issue? One other note this happens using the CQL java driver as well. -brian --- Brian O'Neill Chief Architect Health Market Science The Science of Better Results 2700 Horizon Drive King of Prussia, PA 19406 M: 215.588.6024 @boneill42 <http://www.twitter.com/boneill42> healthmarketscience.com This information transmitted in this email message is for the intended recipient only and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.
