Description

We ran into an issue on production where reads began to fail for certain queries, depending on the range within the relation for those queries. Cassandra system log showed an unhandled CorruptSSTableException exception.

CQL read failure:

ReadFailure: code=1300 [Replica(s) failed to execute read] message="Operation failed - received 0 responses and 1 failures" info={'failures': 1, 'received_responses': 0, 'required_responses': 1, 'consistency': 'ONE'}

Cassandra exception:

After debugging, it appears that a previously dropped static column (weeks prior) was the instigator of the issue. As a workaround we added back the column, restarted all cassandra processes within the cluster, and the read error and corruption exception went away.

Attached is a script to reproduce with a simple schema.

Also noteworthy (and shown in the script) is that when in this state, compaction silently failed (exit 0) to remove the dropped static columns from the "corrupted" sstable.
