CQL: No indexed column error when < or <= in WHERE clause

[Jens Hartung]

Hi together,

first, I'm using Cassandra Version 0.8.4 and access it via CQL 1.0.3.

When I select data from Cassandra with = in WHERE clause, everything works 
fine, but when using <= or < in WHERE clause, I always get following Exception:

java.sql.SQLException: No indexed columns present in by-columns clause with 
"equals" operator
        at 
org.apache.cassandra.cql.jdbc.CassandraStatement.executeQuery(CassandraStatement.java:242)
        at 
columnfamily.queries.CassandraQueries.singleColumnSelect(CassandraQueries.java:147)
...

My select-statement: "SELECT number FROM station WHERE number <= 8210;"

Output of describe keyspace (within cli):

Are the <, <=, >=, > operators not supported at this time?

Greetings
Jens
