Sylvain Lebresne commented on CASSANDRA-1130:
---------------------------------------------

Sorry but I don't seem able to reproduce this.
I've tried a simple test, inserting supercolumns with 100 colums in them, 
each having a TTL (that I varied from 10 seconds to like 3 minutes).
I typically let it insert over 10000 super columns  (so around 1 millions ttled 
columns) and kill it. I run cassandra again, let it compact, kill it again, run 
again, 
start insertion again, etc... I tried like 20 times, no crashes whatsoever.

I've tried with a trunk of a week or so ago and then with trunk from 1 hour 
ago. 
Sounds like you have no problem reproducing on your side so .. I don't know.

If you could somehow come up with a unit test that make it crashes or a small 
script test that triggers it, that would be amazing.

> Hello,
> I am trying to use TTL (timeToLive) feature in SuperColumns.
> My usecase is:
> - I have a SuperColumn and 3 subcolumns.
> - I try to expire data after 60 seconds.
> While Cassandra is up and running, I am successfully able to push and read 
> data without any problems. Data compaction and all occurs fine. After 
> inserting say about 100000 records, I stop Cassandra while data is still 
> coming.
> On startup Cassandra throws an exception and won't start up. (This happens 1 
> in every 3 times). Exception varies like:
> - EOFException while reading data
> - negative value encountered exception
> - Heap Space Exception
> Cassandra simply won't start up.
> Again I get this problem only when I use TTL with SuperColumns. There are no 
> issues with using TTL with regular Columns.
> I tried to diagnose the problem and it seems to happen on startup when it 
> sees a Column that is marked Deleted and its trying to read data. Its off by 
> some bytes and hence all these exceptions.
> Caused by: java.io.IOException: Corrupt (negative) value length encountered
