Eric Lubow commented on CASSANDRA-3865: --------------------------------------- As Yuki said, I'd be more interested in the fix being a complaint of a syntax error (or parse error) when attempting to create a column family as opposed to "command not found" (which is clearly ambiguous). This way I (as a user) know that the CLI is aware that I am attempting to create a column family and it's failing. Now not only do I know that I am on the right track with the command I'm trying to execute, but then I know roughly where the problem is. Fixing the parse error is just a band-aid. > Cassandra-cli returns 'command not found' instead of syntax error > ----------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: CASSANDRA-3865 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3865 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Components: Core > Environment: DSE 1.0.5 > Reporter: Eric Lubow > Assignee: Dave Brosius > Priority: Trivial > Labels: cassandra-cli > Fix For: 1.0.11, 1.1.1 > > Attachments: parse_doubles_better.txt > > > When creating a column family from the output of 'show schema' with an index, > there is a trailing comma after "index_type: 0," The return from this is a > 'command not found' This is misleading because the command is found, there > is just a syntax error. > 'Command not found: `create column family $cfname ...` -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
