Jason Wellonen created CASSANDRA-4744: -----------------------------------------
Summary: Non-escaped single quotes causes CQL to hang Key: CASSANDRA-4744 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4744 Project: Cassandra Issue Type: Improvement Environment: Cassandra 1.1.5, RHEL 6.3 x86_64 Reporter: Jason Wellonen Single quotes in string literals cause CQL to wait indefinitely. This behavior is inherited by clients implementing execute_cql. The end result is a client application that stops responding. For example, the following is entered in cqlsh (notice the ellipses): cqlsh:Keyspace1> INSERT INTO Test1 (testId, test1) VALUES (1566bb5d-9093-4abd-bcaa-e1ac90b94a47, 'This is a test with Cassandra's reserved characters') USING CONSISTENCY LOCAL_QUORUM; ... This continues until ctrl-c is issued. I would expect a "Bad Request" message returned immediately, which is the behavior here: cqlsh:Keyspace1> INSERT INTO Test1 (testId, test1) VALUES (7dcf9529-b57b-4d1d-a396-cff9bc98abb2, 'This is a test without the closing parenthesis in the values section of the insert statement.' USING CONSISTENCY LOCAL_QUORUM; Bad Request: line 1:176 missing ')' at 'USING' -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
