Cassandra astyanax sql query errors out when where clause is used

Question

select with where clause works fine in cassandra cqlsh> but not from Astyanax. However, SLQ clause without where clause works fine from astyanax. Not sure what I'm missing any thoughts?

CREATE TABLE personalization1 (
                       username text primary key,
                      incidentPage text,
                      timelinePage text,
                      );

insert into personalization1 (username,incidentpage,timelinepage) values ('3cd70b90-d211-11e3-8774-14109fdb7013','3cd70b90-d211-11e3-8774-14109fdb7013','3cd70b90-d211-11e3-8774-14109fdb7013');

SELECT * FROM personalization1 where username='3cd70b90-d211-11e3-8774-14109fdb7013' ;

Answer 1

I notice from the stack trace that the "execute_cql_query" function is being used, not "execute_cql3_query", so the query being run is being run like it was executed in cqlsh -2 , that is most likely the issue. The name of the primary key from cql2's view of things is probably "key".
