Thanks for the reply. Should have thought about looking into the log files
sooner. An AssertionError happens at execution. I haven't figured out yet why.
Any input is very much appreciated:

BTW: I really would love to understand as of why the combined comparator will
not allow two ranges be specified for two key parts. Obviously I still lack a
profound understanding of cassandras architecture to have a clue.
And while client side filtering might seem like a valid option I am still
trying to get might head around a cassandra data model that would allow this.
best regards

If it timeouts the likely reason is that this query selects more data
than the machine is able to fetch before the timeout. You can either
add a limit to the query, or increase the timeout.
If that doesn't seem to fix it, it might be worth checking the server
log to see if there isn't an error.

It won't. You can perform the following query:
SELECT datum FROM logs WHERE id='861' and ref = 'raaf';
which will select every datum whose ref starts with 'raaf', but then
you cannot restrict
the time parameter, so you will get ref where the time is <= 3000. Of
course you can
always filter client side if that is an option.

As described above, you can define a range on the second component, but then you
won't be able to restrict on the 3rd component.
