This is a legitimate bug caused by an inconsistency in how `None` cache timeouts are handled in the `memoized_func` decorator in `superset/utils/cache.py`. **What's happening:** When you leave the Schema/Table cache timeout fields empty, the `table_cache_timeout` property on the Database model returns `None` [[1]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/models/core.py#L351-L352). This `None` is explicitly passed as `cache_timeout=None` to `get_all_table_names_in_schema` [[2]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/commands/database/tables.py#L72-L73). Inside the `memoized_func` decorator, `kwargs.pop("cache_timeout", app.config["CACHE_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT"])` sees the key **exists** (with value `None`) and uses `None` instead of falling back to `CACHE_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT` [[3]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/utils/cache.py#L124-L126). Redis's `setex` then rejects `None` as a timeout value, causing the 422. Interestingly, the `set_and_log_cache` function in the same file already handles this correctly with an explicit `None` check [[4]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset/utils/cache.py#L59-L63): ```python timeout = ( cache_timeout if cache_timeout is not None else app.config["CACHE_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT"] ) ``` **Fix:** The most robust fix would be to apply the same pattern in the `memoized_func` decorator (`superset/utils/cache.py` around line 124): ```python cache_timeout = kwargs.pop("cache_timeout", None) cache_timeout = ( cache_timeout if cache_timeout is not None else app.config["CACHE_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT"] ) ``` This ensures that when cache timeout is `None` (empty), it falls back to the global default (86,400 seconds) rather than passing `None` to Redis. **Workaround:** In the meantime, setting an explicit value (e.g., `86400`) in the Schema cache timeout and Table cache timeout fields in the database Advanced > Performance settings should resolve the error. <!-- Dosu Comment Footer --> *To reply, just mention [@dosu](https://go.dosu.dev/dosubot?utm_source=github&utm_medium=bot-comment&utm_campaign=github-comment-footer-20260415&utm_content=reply-with-mention&utm_term=apache%2Fsuperset).* --- Docs are dead.
