Bill Mitchell commented on CASSANDRA-6825:
------------------------------------------
Tyler, you use an interesting word, "flush". After running a test with a
different database name, I went back and looked at the first keyspace, as I did
not drain the node before zipping the file the first time. A third SSTable had
now been written. See the larger .zip file I have attached. When I try the
same statements through cqlsh, a SELECT * FROM sr WHERE ... AND partition = 2
now shows 20000 rows, but SELECT COUNT(*) FROM sr WHERE ... AND partition=2
still returns a count of 10000. So the count is still incorrect.
> COUNT(*) with WHERE not finding all the matching rows

> Key: CASSANDRA-6825
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-6825
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Core
> Environment: quad core Windows7 x64, single node cluster
> Cassandra 2.0.5
> Reporter: Bill Mitchell
> Assignee: Tyler Hobbs
> Attachments: cassandra.log, selectpartitions.zip,
> selectrowcounts.txt, testdb_1395372407904.zip, testdb_1395372407904.zip

> Investigating another problem, I needed to do COUNT(*) on the several
> partitions of a table immediately after a test case ran, and I discovered
> that count(*) on the full table and on each of the partitions returned
> different counts.
> In particular case, SELECT COUNT(*) FROM sr LIMIT 1000000; returned the
> expected count from the test 99999 rows. The composite primary key splits
> the logical row into six distinct partitions, and when I issue a query asking
> for the total across all six partitions, the returned result is only 83999.
> Drilling down, I find that SELECT * from sr WHERE s = 5 AND l = 11 AND
> partition = 0; returns 30,000 rows, but a SELECT COUNT(*) with the identical
> WHERE predicate reports only 14,000.
> This is failing immediately after running a single small test, such that
> there are only two SSTables, sr-jb-1 and sr-jb-2. Compaction never needed to
> run.
> In selectrowcounts.txt is a copy of the cqlsh output showing the incorrect
> count(*) results.
