Joel Knighton commented on CASSANDRA-10089: ------------------------------------------- I've also checked and don't think the stacktrace posted by [~paulo motta] is indicative of any particular problem, other than an unnecessary amount of work is being done in that situation, which shouldn't impact correctness. I think the earlier patch is a sufficient solution to this and agree that an error log is not necessary in that situation. I do suggest that the Shutdown state would be better handled by its own method for clarity, but that is an improvement handled in another ticket. [~Stefania], I agree with your proposed solution; I don't have any better ideas without a significant rework of gossip that would introduce too much risk. I'd say go ahead with that, and I'll be careful in keeping an eye out for performance impacts in review/testing. > NullPointerException in Gossip handleStateNormal > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: CASSANDRA-10089 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-10089 > Project: Cassandra > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Stefania > Assignee: Stefania > Fix For: 2.1.x, 2.2.x, 3.1 > > Attachments: node1_debug.log, node2_debug.log, node3_debug.log > > > Whilst comparing dtests for CASSANDRA-9970 I found [this failing > dtest|http://cassci.datastax.com/view/Dev/view/blerer/job/blerer-9970-dtest/lastCompletedBuild/testReport/consistency_test/TestConsistency/short_read_test/] > in 2.2: > {code} > Unexpected error in node1 node log: ['ERROR [GossipStage:1] 2015-08-14 > 15:39:57,873 CassandraDaemon.java:183 - Exception in thread > Thread[GossipStage:1,5,main] java.lang.NullPointerException: null \tat > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.getApplicationStateValue(StorageService.java:1731) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.getTokensFor(StorageService.java:1804) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.handleStateNormal(StorageService.java:1857) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.onChange(StorageService.java:1629) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.service.StorageService.onJoin(StorageService.java:2312) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.gms.Gossiper.handleMajorStateChange(Gossiper.java:1025) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.gms.Gossiper.applyStateLocally(Gossiper.java:1106) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.gms.GossipDigestAck2VerbHandler.doVerb(GossipDigestAck2VerbHandler.java:49) > ~[main/:na] \tat > org.apache.cassandra.net.MessageDeliveryTask.run(MessageDeliveryTask.java:66) > ~[main/:na] \tat > java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor.runWorker(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:1145) > ~[na:1.7.0_80] \tat > java.util.concurrent.ThreadPoolExecutor$Worker.run(ThreadPoolExecutor.java:615) > ~[na:1.7.0_80] \tat java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:745) ~[na:1.7.0_80]'] > {code} > I wasn't able to find it on unpatched branches but it is clearly not related > to CASSANDRA-9970, if anything it could have been a side effect of > CASSANDRA-9871. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
