> Key: CASSANDRA-5206
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-5206
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: API
> Affects Versions: 1.2.0, 1.2.1
> Environment: Windows, Linux
> Reporter: Tran Huynh
> Priority: Minor
>
> When executing "describe <keyspace>" on Cassandra CLI, often the column
> families shows an empty list, even though the keyspace does contains some
> column family.
> Below is the result observed when doing a describe keyspace on the
> "system_traces" keyspace, but this behaviour is observed on user created
> keyspaces as well.
> [default@system_traces] describe system_traces;
> Keyspace: system_traces:
> Replication Strategy: org.apache.cassandra.locator.SimpleStrategy
> Durable Writes: true
> Options: [replication_factor:1]
