Description

In some cases, queries containing columns that use the Zonemaps feature may fail with the following error:

Successfully reconnected after internal server error, transaction was rolled back

You can verify if a column is using Zonemaps with the following queries:

SELECT COLUMN_NAME, COLUMN_IS_ZONEMAPPED FROM EXA_ALL_COLUMNS WHERE COLUMN_TABLE = 'my_table';

or

DESCRIBE my_table;

Workaround

Set the database parameter -zonemapUseForFilterRaw=0.

Fix

In these instances, the query runs as expected.
