David Reiss commented on THRIFT-517:
------------------------------------
I'd be curious to hear what others think of this proposal. Personally, I think
it risks leaking information about the server's internal implementation that it
might want to keep private.
> TExceptions thrown by server result in cryptic error message on client -
> Tried to read 4 bytes, but only got 0 bytes

> Key: THRIFT-517
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-517
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Compiler (Java), Library (Java)
> Reporter: Adrian Woodhead
>
> To reproduce:
> 1. Define a simple Thrift service method with no custom exceptions.
> 2. In server implementation of service method, throw a TException.
> 3. Generated code in client forces you to do try/catch TException around
> service call, do this, and output stack trace,
> The exception thrown by the server then results in this rather cryptic error
> message in the client:
> 26 22:32:44,931 INFO Caused by:
> org.apache.thrift.transport.TTransportException: Cannot read. Remote side has
> closed. Tried to read 4 bytes, but only got 0 bytes.
> 26 22:32:44,931 INFO at
> org.apache.thrift.transport.TTransport.readAll(TTransport.java:86)
> 26 22:32:44,931 INFO at
> org.apache.thrift.protocol.TBinaryProtocol.readAll(TBinaryProtocol.java:314)
> 26 22:32:44,931 INFO at
> org.apache.thrift.protocol.TBinaryProtocol.readI32(TBinaryProtocol.java:262)
> 26 22:32:44,931 INFO at
> org.apache.thrift.protocol.TBinaryProtocol.readMessageBegin(TBinaryProtocol.java:192)
> 26 22:32:44,931 INFO at
> fm.last.catalogue.api.TCatalogueAPI$Client.recv_getTrackById(TCatalogueAPI.java:249)
> It would be better if the client got the actual TException sent by the
> server, or at the very least a better error message indicating that an
> unexpected error occurred on the server (akin to an HTTP 500 message that
> most web servers use).
