             Summary: KStream offset stuck with exactly_once after brokers 
outage
                 Key: KAFKA-13272
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13272
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: streams
    Affects Versions: 2.8.0
         Environment: Kafka running on Kubernetes
centos
            Reporter: F Méthot


Our KStream app offset stay stuck with exactly_once after outage.

Running with KStream 2.8, kafka broker 2.8,
3 brokers.

commands topic is 10 partitions (replication 2, min-insync 2)
command-expiry-store-changelog topic is 10 partitions (replication 2, 
min-insync 2)
events topic is 10 partitions (replication 2, min-insync 2)

with this topology

Topologies:

 
{code:java}
Sub-topology: 0
 Source: KSTREAM-SOURCE-0000000000 (topics: [commands])

Attempt 1 at reproducing this issue

 

Our stream app runs with processing.guarantee *exactly_once* 

After a Kafka test outage where all 3 brokers pod were deleted at the same time,

Brokers restarted and initialized succesfuly.

When restarting the topology above, one of the tasks would never initialize 
fully, the restore phase would keep outputting this messages every few minutes:

 
{code:java}
2021-08-16 14:20:33,421 INFO stream-thread 
[commands-processor-51b0a534-34b6-47a4-bd9c-c57b6ecb8665-StreamThread-1] 
Restoration in progress for 1 partitions. 
{commands-processor-expiry-store-changelog-8: position=11775908, end=11775911, 
totalRestored=2002076} 
[commands-processor-51b0a534-34b6-47a4-bd9c-c57b6ecb8665-StreamThread-1] 
(org.apache.kafka.streams.processor.internals.StoreChangelogReader)
{code}
Task for partition 8 would never initialize, no more data would be read from 
the source commands topic for that partition.

 

In an attempt to recover, we restarted the stream app with stream 
processing.guarantee back to at_least_once, than it proceed with reading the 
changelog and restoring partition 8 fully.

But we noticed afterward, for the next hour until we rebuilt the system, that 
partition 8 from command-expiry-store-changelog would not be cleaned/compacted 
by the log cleaner/compacter compared to other partitions. (could be unrelated, 
because we have seen that before)

So we resorted to delete/recreate our command-expiry-store-changelog topic and 
events topic and regenerate it from the commands, reading from beginning. 

Things went back to normal
h3. Attempt 2 at reproducing this issue

We force-deleted all 3 pod running kafka.
After that, one of the partition can’t be restored. (like reported in previous 
attempt)
For that partition, we noticed these logs on the broker
{code:java}
[2021-08-27 17:45:32,799] INFO [Transaction Marker Channel Manager 1002]: 
Couldn’t find leader endpoint for partitions Set(__consumer_offsets-11, 
command-expiry-store-changelog-9) while trying to send transaction markers for 
commands-processor-0_9, these partitions are likely deleted already and hence 
can be skipped 
(kafka.coordinator.transaction.TransactionMarkerChannelManager){code}
Then

- we stop the kstream app,

- restarted kafka brokers cleanly

- Restarting the Kstream app, 

Those logs messages showed up on the kstream app log:

 
{code:java}
2021-08-27 18:34:42,413 INFO [Consumer 
clientId=commands-processor-76602c87-f682-4648-859b-8fa9b6b937f3-StreamThread-1-consumer,
 groupId=commands-processor] The following partitions still have unstable 
offsets which are not cleared on the broker side: [commands-9], this could be 
either transactional offsets waiting for completion, or normal offsets waiting 
for replication after appending to local log 
[commands-processor-76602c87-f682-4648-859b-8fa9b6b937f3-StreamThread-1] 
(org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.internals.ConsumerCoordinator)
 
{code}
This would cause our processor to not consume from that specific source 
topic-partition.
 Deleting downstream topic and replaying data would NOT fix the issue 
(EXACTLY_ONCE or AT_LEAST_ONCE)

Workaround found:

Deleted the group associated with the processor, and restarted the kstream 
application, application went on to process data normally. (We have resigned to 
use AT_LEAST_ONCE for now )

KStream config :
StreamsConfig.RETRY_BACKOFF_MS_CONFIG, 2000
StreamsConfig.REPLICATION_FACTOR_CONFIG, 2
StreamsConfig.COMMIT_INTERVAL_MS_CONFIG, 1000
StreamsConfig.CACHE_MAX_BYTES_BUFFERING_CONFIG, 24MB
ConsumerConfig.AUTO_OFFSET_RESET_CONFIG), “earliest”
StreamsConfig.PROCESSING_GUARANTEE_CONFIG, StreamsConfig.EXACTLY_ONCE (now 
AT_LEAST_ONCE)
producer.delivery.timeout.ms=120000
consumer.session.timeout.ms=30000
consumer.heartbeat.interval.ms=10000
consumer.max.poll.interval.ms=300000
num.stream.threads=1

 

We will be doing more of test and I will update the ticket with any findings.
