----------------------------------------
Summary: Different encodings used between nodes can cause
inconsistently generated prepared statement ids
Key: CASSANDRA-10539
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10539
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Andy Tolbert
Priority: Minor
[From the java-driver mailing
list|https://groups.google.com/a/lists.datastax.com/forum/#!topic/java-driver-user/3Aa7s0u2ZrI]
/ [JAVA-955|https://datastax-oss.atlassian.net/browse/JAVA-955]
If you have nodes in your cluster that are using a different default character
set it's possible for nodes to generate different prepared statement ids for
the same 'keyspace + query string' combination. I imagine this is not a very
typical or desired configuration (thus the low severity).
This is because
[MD5Digest.compute(String)|https://github.com/apache/cassandra/blob/cassandra-3.0/src/java/org/apache/cassandra/utils/MD5Digest.java#L51-L54]
uses
[String.getBytes()|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#getBytes()]
which relies on the default charset.
In the general case this is fine, but if you use some characters in your query
string such as
[Character.MAX_VALUE|http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/lang/Character.html#MAX_VALUE]
('\uffff') the byte representation may vary based on the coding.
I was able to reproduce this configuring a 2-node cluster with node1 using
file.encoding {{UTF-8}} and node2 using file.encoding {{ISO-8859-1}}. The
java-driver test demonstrates this can be found
[here|https://github.com/datastax/java-driver/blob/java955/driver-core/src/test/java/com/datastax/driver/core/RetryOnUnpreparedTest.java].
