Christian Esken created CASSANDRA-13264:
-------------------------------------------
Summary: NullPointerException in sstabledump
Key: CASSANDRA-13264
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-13264
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Compaction
Environment: Cassandra 3.0.9
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM version 25.112-b15 (Java version
1.8.0_112-b15)
Linux 3.16
Reporter: Christian Esken
Priority: Minor
I have a table where all columns are stored with TTL of maximum 4 hours.
Usually TWCS compaction properly removes expired data via tombstone compaction
and also removes fully expired tables. The number of SSTables is nearly
constant since weeks. Good.
The problem: Suddenly TWCS does not remove old SSTables any longer. They are
being recreated frequently (judging form the file creation timestamp), but the
number of tables is growing. Analysis and actions take so far:
- sstablemetadata shows strange data, as if the table is completely empty.
- sstabledump throws an Exception when running it on such a SSTable
- Even triggering a manual major compaction will not remove the old SSTable's.
To be more precise: They are recreated with new id and timestamp (not sure
whether they are identical as I cannot inspect content due to the sstabledump
crash)
