Christoph Werres created CASSANDRA-4870:
-------------------------------------------
Summary: CQL3 documentation does not use double quotes for case
sensitivity
Key: CASSANDRA-4870
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4870
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Documentation & website
Affects Versions: 1.1.6, 1.1.5
Reporter: Christoph Werres
Priority: Minor
CQL3 documentation is misleading considering the example for CREATE KEYSPACE.
If not enclosed by double quotes (as in the example), data center names are
interpreted as case insensitive. The example topology file
"cassandra-topology.properties" within the "conf" directory of each Cassandra
distribution uses capital letters for data center names. This leads to a
cluster, where no data center seems to be available for keyspaces that were
created according to the example.
Data center names are defined case sensitive within
cassandra-topology.properties, but are all lower case in created column
families metadata using CQL3 without using double quotes.
