A ':' is not a supported character, and as I mentioned before, Phoenix doesn't support HBase table namespaces. > User-space table qualifiers can only contain 'alphanumeric characters': i.e. > [a-zA-Z_0-9-.] > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PHOENIX-1421 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PHOENIX-1421 > Project: Phoenix > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: venkat > > while I am trying to map with my HBase table the following exception occurred. > java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character code:-30, <¬> at 17. > User-space table qualifiers can only contain 'alphanumeric characters': i.e. > [a-zA-Z_0-9-.]: ZING.MACRO” -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
