Hi all, I had a situation where a thrift gateway was returning data that didnt exist in the hbase table! It was very confusing because none of the Java scanners or the jruby shell would show the data, but the 'getRow' thrift call - which was tunneled via autossh btw - kept on returning reasonable looking, yet non-existent data.
I had restarted the regionserver hosting the table (small table), and twiddled the code over and over. Finally I restarted the thrift server and that fixed it. My only remaining theory after inspecting our thrift server code is that the thrift RPC/server code will cache replies... Or some other bug perhaps? anyone have any thoughts?
