> [pipeline][paimon] Paimon pipeline sink fails with distributed source when
> target table does not exist
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

> Key: FLINK-39718
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-39718
> Project: Flink
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Flink CDC
> Reporter: Ran Tao
> Priority: Major
> Labels: pull-request-available
>
> When using a distributed pipeline source with Paimon sink, the job may fail
> if the target table does not already exist.
> The failure happens in *DistributedPrePartitionOperator*. The previous
> *PaimonHashFunction* rebuilds the hash function at this stage and immediately
> accesses the external Paimon catalog to load the target table. If the table
> has not been created yet, *catalog.getTable(...)* throws
> TableNotExistException, and the job fails in the pre-partition stage.
> This issue is usually not exposed in MySQL-CDC pipelines because MySQL-CDC
> uses regular topology. In that path, CreateTableEvent is handled by
> SchemaOperator first, and MetadataApplier creates the downstream table before
> records enter *RegularPrePartitionOperator*. As a result, the previous
> PaimonHashFunction can usually find the target table from the catalog.
> For distributed pipeline sources, the execution order is different:
> pre-partitioning happens before the target table is created by
> *MetadataApplier* in the schema coordination phase.
> This issue is not specific to Kafka. It can affect any distributed pipeline
> source with the same execution order.
