I have following database schema CREATE TABLE sensor_info_table ( asset_id text, event_time timestamp, "timestamp" timeuuid, sensor_reading map<text, text>, sensor_serial_number text, sensor_type int, PRIMARY KEY ((asset_id), event_time, "timestamp") );
CREATE INDEX event_time_index ON sensor_info_table (event_time); CREATE INDEX timestamp_index ON sensor_info_table ("timestamp"); Now I am able to insert the data into this table, however I am unable to do following query where I want to select items with specific timeuuid values. It gives me following error. SELECT * from mydb.sensor_info_table where timestamp IN ( bfdfa614-3166-11e4-a61d-b888e30f5d17 , bf4521ac-3166-11e4-87a3-b888e30f5d17) ; Bad Request: PRIMARY KEY column "timestamp" cannot be restricted (preceding column "event_time" is either not restricted or by a non-EQ relation) What do I have to do to make this work? For what its worth I am using django for my front end development and I am using "timestamp timeuuid" field as unique indentifier to reference specific sensor reading from django framework -- since cassandra doesn't have way to generate unique id upon insert (like old-style rdms's auto-fields). Below is software version info. show VERSION ; [cqlsh 4.1.1 | Cassandra 2.0.9 | CQL spec 3.1.1 | Thrift protocol 19.39.0] I really don't understand what the error message preceeding column "event_time" is either not restricted or by no-EQ relation? -Subodh Nijsure
