Justine Olshan created KAFKA-15459: -------------------------------------- Summary: Convert coordinator retriable errors to a known producer response error. Key: KAFKA-15459 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-15459 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Sub-task Affects Versions: 3.6.0 Reporter: Justine Olshan Assignee: Justine Olshan
While reviewing [https://github.com/apache/kafka/pull/14370] I added some of the documentation for the returned errors in the produce response as well. There were concerns about the new errors: * \{@link Errors#COORDINATOR_LOAD_IN_PROGRESS} * \{@link Errors#COORDINATOR_NOT_AVAILABLE} * \{@link Errors#INVALID_TXN_STATE} * \{@link Errors#INVALID_PRODUCER_ID_MAPPING} * \{@link Errors#CONCURRENT_TRANSACTIONS} The coordinator load, not available, and concurrent transactions errors should be retriable. The invalid txn state and pid mapping errors should be abortable. This is how older java clients handle the errors, but it is unclear how other clients handle them. It seems that rdkafka (for example) treats the abortable errors as fatal instead. The coordinator errors are retriable but not the concurrent transactions error. It seems acceptable for the abortable errors to be fatal on some clients since the error is likely on a zombie producer or in a state that may be harder to recover from. However, for the retriable errors, we can return NOT_ENOUGH_REPLICAS which is a known retriable response. We can use the produce api's response string to specify the real cause of the error for debugging. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
