Github user HeartSaVioR commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/1642 Found other issue: Constructor of BasicContainer (in fact constructor of Container) throws FNF when topology dist files are deleted. So even though Slot is creating with recover mode, Supervisor is killed instead of throwing ContainerRecoveryException. Supervisor will consistently be killed unless we remove the assignment for that - killing topology. This is a weird case but can be happening, and I guess that's why ContainerRecoveryException exists.
