This looks like it was introduced by the new commit mentioned here but it's actually caused by a pre-existing (unknown) bug in the Flink runner: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BEAM-965.
I also have a fix ready. Btw, how should we deal with these messages from Jenkins? I'm writing to the dev list so that no-one else spends the energy for looking into this. ---------- Forwarded message --------- From: Apache Jenkins Server <jenk...@builds.apache.org> Date: Fri, 11 Nov 2016 at 20:17 Subject: Jenkins build became unstable: beam_PostCommit_RunnableOnService_FlinkLocal #813 To: <comm...@beam.incubator.apache.org>, <tg...@google.com> See < https://builds.apache.org/job/beam_PostCommit_RunnableOnService_FlinkLocal/813/changes >
