ryan rawson updated HBASE-1330:
-------------------------------
Status: Patch Available (was: Open)
this is a typical META bug - using the normal Bytes comparator to compare the
'row' section causes problems when the first byte is '\0'. So if you have keys
that start with a value < ',', most common in the binary key case (when the
first byte is '\0'), you end up with incorrect storing saying things like:
table,,1234 > table,\0,1234
which is not correct. since [] < '\0'.
> binary keys broken on trunk

> The symptom is commits fail with 'table not found' exception - even though
> the table does in fact exist!
> Digging in a little with debug logs indicate that getClosestRowBefore() is
> returning NULL, which for a table that exists should never be! A key always
> falls into a region - either the first or the last one at the very least.
