Not sure either, but it sounds like a bug to me. Can you reproduce this reliably? What version are you using?

It would be best if you could file a Jira ticket and we can take it from there.

Here my understanding is state-store is null and at that time
stateStore.flush() gets invoked to send the data to stateStore, this leads
to the above error. This error can be caught inside kafka-streams
setUncaughtExceptionHandler.
   streams.setUncaughtExceptionHandler(throwable -> {
           LOGGER.error("Exception in streams", throwable);
           return
StreamsUncaughtExceptionHandler.StreamThreadExceptionResponse.REPLACE_THREAD;
   });
I'm uncertain about the exact reason for this issue. Everything seems to be
in order, including the Kafka cluster, and there are no errors in the Kafka
Streams except for a few logs indicating node disconnections.
Is there a better way to handle this error?
When can this issue happen ?
I would like to express my gratitude in advance for any assistance provided.
