Nishkam Ravi commented on KAFKA-8970:
-------------------------------------
Just so we are on the same page-- even when two apps have different app.id's we
want their state dirs to be different (although they are using different
subfolders as you point out)? In that case, wouldn't it make sense for KStreams
to create state.dir's by appending _appId as a suffix?
> StateDirectory creation fails with Exception

> Key: KAFKA-8970
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-8970
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: streams
> Reporter: Nishkam Ravi
> Priority: Major
>
> When two threads try to create KafkaStreams simultaneously, one of them
> succeeds while the other fails with the following exception:
> org.apache.kafka.streams.errors.StreamsException:
> org.apache.kafka.streams.errors.ProcessorStateException: base state directory
> [/tmp/kafka-streams] doesn't exist and couldn't be created
> Quick investigation suggests that this is because the code at/around:
> [https://github.com/apache/kafka/blob/trunk/streams/src/main/java/org/apache/kafka/streams/processor/internals/StateDirectory.java#L82]
> is not synchronized and can lead to race conditions.
> Specifying different values for state.dir can be a workaround for this issue
> but a bit cumbersome. Can we just make this synchronized?
