Description

When I run following CQL on trunk, throws exception (only in CQL2). This statement used to work and I think something is broken after CASSANDRA-4179.

CREATE TABLE Standard1 (key ascii PRIMARY KEY, c0 ascii);

Exception is:

ERROR [Thrift:1] 2012-07-31 09:54:02,585 CustomTThreadPoolServer.java (line 202) Error occurred during processing of message.
