Thanks for the answer. If I understand that correctly I had to do the following to repair my query:
cqlsh:demodb> select * from ola where date < '2013-01-01' and date = '2013-01-01' limit 10; Bad Request: datum cannot be restricted by more than one relation if it includes an Equal Perhaps you meant to use CQL 2? Try using the -2 option when starting cqlsh. So, this still fails. Therefore I'm not shure whether I missunderstand the issue or if it does not solve my problem. 2013/2/3 Manu Zhang <owenzhang1...@gmail.com>: > On Sun 03 Feb 2013 07:36:58 AM CST, Paul van Hoven wrote: >> >> I've got a table that has a column called date.
