[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1866?page=comments#action_12436637 ] A B commented on DERBY-1866: ----------------------------
> As I understand it, this bug exists in the 10.1.3 release. It seems that, as > far as this bug is > concerned, 10.2 is no worse than 10.1.3. For that reason, I would not be > inclined to hold up > the 10.2 release for this bug fix. Two things: 1. Are we going to mention the known issues (esp. regressions) that exist with the 10.2 release (aside from intentional behavioral changes) somewhere in the release notes? I looked at the html file attached to DERBY-1860 and didn't see any (the "issues" section just holds release notes for intentional behavior changes and/or fixes). Are we just leaving it up to the users to navigate Jira to find outstanding issues like DERBY-1866? 2. Just as a note, this reasoning for not holding up the release also applies to DERBY-1777, DERBY-1633, and DERBY-1681, since all of those fail with 10.1.3 release, as well. (Oh, and *DERBY-1854*, for that matter!) Am I to understand that if any of those was still unresolved, we'd go ahead with the release nonetheless? I'm not disagreeing with the decision, just curious if the "it's no worse than <previous release>" rule is specific to this particular Jira or if it applies on a more general scale? Thanks for following through with this discussion and making a final decision! > Assert failure in sane mode for queries that used to work in 10.1.2.1 > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: DERBY-1866 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DERBY-1866 > Project: Derby > Issue Type: Bug > Components: SQL > Affects Versions: 10.2.1.0, 10.1.4.0, 10.1.3.2 > Reporter: A B > Assigned To: A B > Fix For: 10.2.2.0 > > Attachments: derby.log, repro.sql > > > Derby-1777 gives a database and a small program called "ViewerInit" that > prepares a bunch of large queries involving nested subqueries, unions, and > join predicates. The actual bug described in DERBY-1777 is an NPE, and > that's what the patch for DERBY-1777 addresses. > However, once the NPEs are fixed, some of the queries in that same program > now fail with ASSERT failures when running in SANE mode; this Jira issue is > for addressing those assert failures. > While this does constitute a regression, I don't know yet what the root cause > of the problem is, so I hesitate to make it a 10.2 blocker--hence urgency is > "Normal". I'm still investigating the queries to try to track down where the > problem is, but all I've been able to deduce so far is that a) the assertion > occurs for a scoped predicate and thus the pushing of join predicates into > UNIONs is somehow involved, and b) in INSANE mode the query compiles without > problem and appears (based on some early and very incomplete testing) to > execute without problem. But more investigation is required to determine if > the execution/results are actually correct, and to understand more about why > the assertion is being thrown. > I'm marking the fixin as 10.2.2.0 for now since I don't enough to make this a > blocker for 10.2.1.
