----------------------------------------
Summary: FlowFiles doesn't get cleared from upstream from some
processors after it errors
Key: NIFI-6426
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-6426
Project: Apache NiFi
Issue Type: Bug
Environment: I'm using NiFi 1.8.0 version
Reporter: Mallikarjun Terdal
Attachments: NiFiError.png
When some processors (Example : ReplaceText), throw errors, the flowFile from
upstream doesn't get routed to failure queue. It continues to reside in
upstream and the same error is thrown by the processor after the Penalty
Duration has passed infinitely until the file has manually been deleted.
This has two challenges.
# The log file will log the same error for same file multiple times
# Can't make use of error handling mechanism (like alerting the client via
slack or email about the error so that it can be fixed) as the flowFile which
triggers the event has got stuck in the upstream
Irrespective of whether it's a compile time or run time exception, all flow
files should be routed to downstream.
