lhotari opened a new issue, #23261: URL: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues/23261
### Search before asking - [X] I searched in the [issues](https://github.com/apache/pulsar/issues) and found nothing similar. ### Read release policy - [X] I understand that unsupported versions don't get bug fixes. I will attempt to reproduce the issue on a supported version of Pulsar client and Pulsar broker. ### Version any released version, master branch ### Minimal reproduce step This was found when analysing the source code, so no reproducer yet. A test application that consumes and acks messages while a topic is being frequently unloaded will reproduce this issue. ### What did you expect to see? When ack receipt is enabled, the broker should respond with a failure when it discards an ack. ### What did you see instead? When the consumer isn't found, it's silently discarded. There's debug logging, but no ack receipt response logic to respond with an error: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/blob/6c300f515dbf245620b14a844d9ff6215426e992/pulsar-broker/src/main/java/org/apache/pulsar/broker/service/ServerCnx.java#L1982-L1988 and https://github.com/apache/pulsar/blob/6c300f515dbf245620b14a844d9ff6215426e992/pulsar-broker/src/main/java/org/apache/pulsar/broker/service/ServerCnx.java#L1952-L1960 ### Anything else? _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a PR? - [ ] I'm willing to submit a PR! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
