Creating a table with invalid syntax does not give an error message when it
fails
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: HBASE-5581
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-5581
Project: HBase
Issue Type: Bug
Components: shell
Reporter: Binu John
Priority: Minor
Creating a table with invalid syntax does not give an error message when it
fails. In this case, it doesn't actually create the CF requested, but doesn't
give any indication to the user that it failed.
create 'test', {NAME => 'test', VERSIONS => 1, BLOCKCACHE => true, NUMREGIONS
=> 20, SPLITALGO => "HexStringSplit", COMPRESSION => 'LZO', BLOOMFILTER =>
'ROW'}
0 row(s) in 3.0930 seconds
hbase(main):002:0> describe 'test'
DESCRIPTION
ENABLED
{NAME => 'test', FAMILIES => []}
true
1 row(s) in 0.1430 seconds
----
Putting {NUMREGIONS => 20, SPLITALGO => "HexStringSplit"} into a separate
stanza works fine, so the feature is fine.
create 'test', {NAME => 'test', VERSIONS => 1, BLOCKCACHE => true, COMPRESSION
=> 'LZO', BLOOMFILTER => 'ROW'}, {NUMREGIONS => 20, SPLITALGO =>
"HexStringSplit"}
0 row(s) in 2.7860 seconds
hbase(main):002:0> describe 'test'
DESCRIPTION
ENABLED
{NAME => 'test', FAMILIES => [{NAME => 'test', DATA_BLOCK_ENCODING => 'NONE',
true
BLOOMFILTER => 'ROW', REPLICATION_SCOPE => '0', COMPRESSION => 'LZO', VERSIONS
=> '1', TTL => '2147483647', BLOCKSIZE => '65536', BLOOMFILTER_ERRORRATE => '
0.01', ENCODE_ON_DISK => 'true', IN_MEMORY => 'false', BLOCKCACHE => 'true'}]}
----
We should throw an error if we can't create the CF so it's clear to the user.
