----------------------------------
Assignee: Agam Brahma
> Improve failed leader election logging
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-7906
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7906
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Jason Gustafson
> Assignee: Agam Brahma
> Priority: Major
>
> We often see annoying log messages like the following in the state change log:
> {code}
> [2019-02-05 00:02:51,307] ERROR [Controller id=13 epoch=14] Controller 13
> epoch 14 failed to change state for partition topic-3 from OnlinePartition to
> OnlinePartition
> (state.change.logger)
> kafka.common.StateChangeFailedException: Failed to elect leader for partition
> topic-3 under strategy PreferredReplicaPartitionLeaderElectionStrategy
> at
> kafka.controller.PartitionStateMachine$$anonfun$doElectLeaderForPartitions$3.apply(PartitionStateMachine.scala:328)
> at
> kafka.controller.PartitionStateMachine$$anonfun$doElectLeaderForPartitions$3.apply(PartitionStateMachine.scala:326)
> at
> scala.collection.mutable.ResizableArray$class.foreach(ResizableArray.scala:59)

> at
> kafka.controller.PartitionStateMachine.doHandleStateChanges(PartitionStateMachine.scala:175)
> at
> kafka.controller.PartitionStateMachine.handleStateChanges(PartitionStateMachine.scala:116)
> {code}
> The stack trace is not adding any value and the message doesn't explain why
> the election failed. You have to read the code to figure it out. It's also
> curious that you have to look in the state change log for failed leader
> elections in the first place. It would be more intuitive to put these in the
> controller log.
