---------------------------------------
Summary: Provide row number when ExcelReader throws exception when
it fails to convert a value
Key: NIFI-13819
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-13819
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Daniel Stieglitz
Assignee: Daniel Stieglitz
While testing NIFI-13726 it was noticed when using the ExcelReader configured
with the "Use Starting Row" strategy that the file failed but the message was
{code:java}
org.apache.nifi.processor.exception.ProcessException: Could not parse incoming
data
....
Caused by: org.apache.nifi.serialization.MalformedRecordException: Read next
Record from Excel XLSX failed
at
org.apache.nifi.excel.ExcelRecordReader.nextRecord(ExcelRecordReader.java:86)
at
org.apache.nifi.serialization.RecordReader.nextRecord(RecordReader.java:50)
at
java.base/jdk.internal.reflect.DirectMethodHandleAccessor.invoke(DirectMethodHandleAccessor.java:103)
at java.base/java.lang.reflect.Method.invoke(Method.java:580)
{code}
which does not point to which row the ExcelReader failed on. It would be
helpful to include in the exception message which row the reader failed on.
