--------------------------------------
[~fpaul] Correct me if I'm looking at the wrong code path, but I think Kafka
tries to return the same producer ID when reusing a transactional ID that is
not expired.
https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/core/src/main/scala/kafka/coordinator/transaction/TransactionCoordinator.scala#L136
Since producer ID can expire either when there is no new message (including
control message) written from the producer, or when there is no data in the
topic at all. I think it's possible for this case to happen if the log segment
has just retentioned out (when doing size based retention).
In our setup, the checkpoint duration is every 5 second, number of concurrent
checkpoints is 1.
Here is our stacktrace when the exception happened

> Reporter: Jun Qin
> Priority: Minor

> When recovering from a snapshot (checkpoint/savepoint), FlinkKafkaProducer
> tries to recommit all pre-committed transactions which are in the snapshot,
> even if those transactions were successfully committed before (i.e., the call
> to {{kafkaProducer.commitTransaction()}} via {{notifyCheckpointComplete()}}
> returns OK). This may lead to recovery failures when recovering from a very
> old snapshot because the transactional IDs in that snapshot may have been
> expired and removed from Kafka. For example the following scenario:
> # Start a Flink job with FlinkKafkaProducer sink with exactly-once
> # Suspend the Flink job with a savepoint A
> # Wait for time longer than {{transactional.id.expiration.ms}} +
> {{transaction.remove.expired.transaction.cleanup.interval.ms}}
> # Recover the job with savepoint A.
> # The recovery will fail with the following error:
