Re: counter Increment gives DonotRetryException

2013-08-29 Thread Ted Yu 
The exception came from HRegion#increment():

if(kv.getValueLength() == Bytes.SIZEOF_LONG) {

  amount += Bytes.toLong(kv.getBuffer(),
kv.getValueOffset(), Bytes.SIZEOF_LONG);

} else {

  // throw DoNotRetryIOException instead of
IllegalArgumentException

  throw new org.apache.hadoop.hbase.DoNotRetryIOException(

  Attempted to increment field that isn't 64 bits wide
);

}

Can you check the values in 'columnar:column1' ?

You probably put a string in there that was a number, and increment expects
a 8 bytes long. For example, if you did:

put 't1', '9row27', 'columnar:column1', '1'

Then did an increment on that, it would fail.
