Stefania edited comment on CASSANDRA-12024 at 6/22/16 8:36 AM: --------------------------------------------------------------- No child process exited. Either child processes could not read the {{CQLSH_COPY_TEST_FAILURES}} environment variable, or no child process received a sub-range of {{0 - 5000000000000000000}}, which is probably what happened. So it looks like a test problem to me but to know for sure we need to get this test to fail with [this patch|https://github.com/stef1927/cassandra/tree/12024-2.1] applied, which will print out the value of the environment variable as well as the token ranges processed by child processes. Feel free to take a different approach that does not depend on token ranges if you can come up with a better idea; we basically need to select at least one child process and tell it to exit after having processed a few token ranges. The second part is easy, but to select a specific child process, the only alternative I could think of is to change the parent process to pass an index to each child process. So far we haven't gone down this route because it is a bit invasive but if you think it is necessary and don't have any better idea, we can alter the code to do this. was (Author: stefania): No child process exited.
