Hi, Unable to use the Increment function, can anybody suggest what am I doing wrong...
I enter data by :- theput.add(Bytes.toBytes("uid"),Bytes.toBytes("1"), 1301087829999L + t, Bytes.toBytes(10)) Now when I try to increment the value I have tried... mytable.incrementColumnValue(Bytes.toBytes("row5"), Bytes.toBytes("uid"),Bytes.toBytes("1"),Bytes.toBytes(1)) mytable.incrementColumnValue(Bytes.toBytes("row5"), Bytes.toBytes("uid"),Bytes.toBytes("1"),1) also val inc = new Increment(Bytes.toBytes("row" + 5)) inc.addColumn(Bytes.toBytes("uid"),Bytes.toBytes("1"),1) mytable.increment(inc) In both of the cases, I get an error like org.apache.hadoop.hbase.client.RetriesExhaustedException: Exceptions: java.io.IOException: java.io.IOException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: offset (28) + length (8) exceed the capacity of the array: 32 at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.Bytes.explainWrongLengthOrOffset(Bytes.java:502) at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.util.Bytes.toLong(Bytes.java:480) at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegion.incrementColumnValue(HRegion.java:3134) at org.apache.hadoop.hbase.regionserver.HRegionServer.incrementColumnValue(HRegionServer.java:2486) at sun.reflect.GeneratedMethodAccessor17.invoke(Unknown Source) at sun.reflec... I guess I have tried all possible combinations of datatypes....I could not even find a decent example of incrementColumnValue()
