-----------------------------------------
Hi Robert, I am able to reproduce this in 3.3
Here would be an easy way to reproduce it (this throws the exception but it
also returns the exception to the client. I am still looking for an easy way to
reproduce the non-returning state):
create table test (bucket int primary key, val decimal);
insert into test (bucket, val) values (1, 0.25);
insert into test (bucket, val) values (2, 0.25);
insert into test (bucket, val) values (3, 0.5);
select avg(val) from test where bucket in (1, 2, 3);
=> ServerError: <ErrorMessage code=0000 [Server error]
message="java.lang.ArithmeticException: Non-terminating decimal expansion; no
exact representable decimal result.">
> ArithmeticException in avgFunctionForDecimal

> Key: CASSANDRA-11485
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-11485
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: CQL
> Reporter: Nico Haller
> Priority: Minor
>
> I am running into issues when using avg in queries on decimal values.
> It throws an ArithmeticException in
> org/apache/cassandra/cql3/functions/AggregateFcts.java (Line 184).
> So whenever an exact representation of the quotient is not possible it will
> throw that error and it never returns to the querying client.
> I am not so sure if this is intended behavior or a bug, but in my opinion if
> an exact representation of the value is not possible, it should automatically
> round the value.
> Specifying a rounding mode when calling the divide function should solve the
> issue
