ERROR XSDG2: Invalid checksum on Page occurs during mass inserts into 
two-column bigint PK table

                 Key: DERBY-3611
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-3611
             Project: Derby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Store
    Affects Versions: 10.3.2.1, 10.3.1.4
         Environment: Occurred on 6 separate quad-core machines running either 
Vista, Vista SP1 and Server 2008.  Also seen on AMD64 dual core 4200 with 4 GB 
of ram running 32 bit XP pro.
            Reporter: David Sitsky
            Priority: Critical
         Attachments: derby-worker0.log

The original extensive email thread reporting this issue can be seen from here: 
http://www.nabble.com/ERROR-XSDG2%3A-Invalid-checksum-on-Page-Page%280%2CContainer%280%2C-1313%29%29-td16389697.html.

I have an intensive data-processing application which utilises Apache Derby, 
using 6 quad-core machines running Vista SP1 and/or Vista Server 2008.  Each 
quad-core machine typically runs 4 separate JVM worker processes, each running 
their own embedded derby database.

I have found after 5 or 10 hours of processing, one or a couple of my worker 
processes, start reporting the following error in their derby.log file:

ERROR XSDG2: Invalid checksum on Page Page(0,Container(0, 1313)) 

The worker process never seems to recover.  Derby locates the error, reboots 
the database, but seems to inevitably report the same error again.  I have 
tried both 10.3.1.4 and 10.3.2.1 with the same results.  The conglomerate and 
page number is always the same.

I know it is not a hardware issue, as this is across 6 separate machines, and 
it has happened with software / hardware raid, and no disk errors have been 
reported.  A customer of our software also reported this error occurring on 
their AMD64 dual core 4200 with 4 GB of ram running 32 bit XP pro.

The table the conglomerate refers to is as follows:

CREATE TABLE text_table (guidhigh BIGINT NOT NULL,
                         guid BIGINT NOT NULL,
                         data BLOB (1G) NOT NULL,
                         PRIMARY KEY (guidhigh, guid)) 

In this application, essentially random values for guidhigh and guid were being 
created, with data being compressed text, that could range from anything from a 
few bytes to many megabytes in size.

The processing code effectively did a select from the table on guidhigh and 
guid to check if an entry exists, before inserting a new row within a 
transaction.

If I forceable shut the application down, I could connect to the database using 
ij, and would get the same error:

ij> select count(*) from text_table;
ERROR XSDG2: Invalid checksum on Page Page(0,Container(0, 1313)), 
expected=304,608,373, on-disk version=2,462,088,751, page dump follows: Hex 
dump:
00000000: 0076 0000 0001 0000 0000 0000 27ea 0000  .v..............
00000010: 0000 0006 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000  ................
00000020: 0000 0000 0001 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000  ................
.... 

A workaround which we managed to implement in our application, as suggested 
from derby-user via Stanley Bradbury,  was to not have the PK during the load, 
which we managed to implement.  We also replaced the two column PK with a 
single column and the problem has since never occurred.

I'll attach a number of example derby.log files which contain the error 
messages.
