             Summary: Improve handling of failed prepared statement loading
                 Key: CASSANDRA-16442
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-16442
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Thomas Steinmaurer


In an internal DEV cluster, when going from 3.0 to 3.11 we have seen the 
following WARN logs constantly upon Cassandra startup.
{noformat}
...
WARN [main] 2021-02-05 09:25:06,892 QueryProcessor.java:160 - prepared 
statement recreation error: SELECT n,v FROM "Ts2Volatile60Min" WHERE k=? LIMIT 
?;
WARN [main] 2021-02-05 09:25:06,895 QueryProcessor.java:160 - prepared 
statement recreation error: INSERT INTO "Ts2Final01Min" (k,n,v) VALUES (?,?,?) 
USING TIMESTAMP ?;
...
{noformat}

I guess 3.11 tries to pre-load prepared statements for tables which don't exist 
anymore. On how we got into this situation was our fault I think (Cas 3.0 => 
Upgrade 3.11 => Downgrade 3.0 => with 3.0 some tables got dropped => Upgrade 
3.11.10).

Still, perhaps there is room for improvement when it comes to loading persisted 
prepared statements, which might fail.

I thought about:
* An additional {{nodetool}} option to wipe the persisted prepared statement 
cache
* Perhaps even make the startup code smarter in a way, when loading of a 
prepared statement fails, due to a table not being available anymore, then 
auto-wipe such entries from the {{prepared_statements}} system table

To get rid of the WARN log, I currently need to work directly on the 
"prepared_statements" system table, but I don't know if it is safe to run e.g. 
a TRUNCATE statement, thus currently, it seems we need to take each node 
offline, execute a Linux {{rm}} command on SSTables for the system table.
