rabbah commented on a change in pull request #3799: Display proper error when sequence invocation fails due to missing component URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-openwhisk/pull/3799#discussion_r201860889
########## File path: core/controller/src/main/scala/whisk/core/controller/actions/SequenceActions.scala ########## @@ -280,6 +276,9 @@ protected[actions] trait SequenceActions { // since all throwables are recovered with a failed accounting instance and this is // in turned boxed to FailedSequenceActivation case FailedSequenceActivation(accounting) => Future.successful(accounting) + case _: NoDocumentException => + Future.successful( + initialAccounting.fail(ActivationResponse.applicationError(sequenceComponentNotFound), None)) Review comment: I'm wrong - looking deeper: ``` val resolvedFutureActions = resolveDefaultNamespace(components, user) map { c => WhiskActionMetaData.resolveActionAndMergeParameters(entityStore, c) } ``` Will resolve all the components first and so if the future fails with a no doc exception, it is safe to use the initial accounting object. The placement of the recover with is dangerous though (for the reason I initially thought it was incorrect). ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
