Hi, I'm getting an error that happens randomly when starting a flink application.
For context, this is running in YARN on AWS. This application is one that converts from the Table API to the Stream API, so two flink applications/jobmanagers are trying to start up. I think what happens is that the rest api port is chosen, and is the same for both of the flink apps. If YARN chooses two different instances for the two task managers, they each work fine and start their rest api on the same port on their own respective machine. But, if YARN chooses the same instance for both job managers, they both try to start up the rest api on the same port on the same machine, and I get the error. Here is the error: 2021-09-22 15:47:27,724 ERROR org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint [] - Could not start cluster entrypoint YarnJobClusterEntrypoint. org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypointException: Failed to initialize the cluster entrypoint YarnJobClusterEntrypoint. at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.startCluster(ClusterEntrypoint.java:212) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.runClusterEntrypoint(ClusterEntrypoint.java:600) [flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.yarn.entrypoint.YarnJobClusterEntrypoint.main(YarnJobClusterEntrypoint.java:99) [flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] Caused by: org.apache.flink.util.FlinkException: Could not create the DispatcherResourceManagerComponent. at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.component.DefaultDispatcherResourceManagerComponentFactory.create(DefaultDispatcherResourceManagerComponentFactory.java:275) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.runCluster(ClusterEntrypoint.java:250) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.lambda$startCluster$1(ClusterEntrypoint.java:189) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) ~[?:1.8.0_282] at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAs(Subject.java:422) ~[?:1.8.0_282] at org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation.doAs(UserGroupInformation.java:1730) ~[hadoop-common-3.2.1-amzn-3.jar:?] at org.apache.flink.runtime.security.contexts.HadoopSecurityContext.runSecured(HadoopSecurityContext.java:41) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.startCluster(ClusterEntrypoint.java:186) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] ... 2 more Caused by: java.net.BindException: Could not start rest endpoint on any port in port range 35485 at org.apache.flink.runtime.rest.RestServerEndpoint.start(RestServerEndpoint.java:234) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.component.DefaultDispatcherResourceManagerComponentFactory.create(DefaultDispatcherResourceManagerComponentFactory.java:172) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.runCluster(ClusterEntrypoint.java:250) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.lambda$startCluster$1(ClusterEntrypoint.java:189) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) ~[?:1.8.0_282] at javax.security.auth.Subject.doAs(Subject.java:422) ~[?:1.8.0_282] at org.apache.hadoop.security.UserGroupInformation.doAs(UserGroupInformation.java:1730) ~[hadoop-common-3.2.1-amzn-3.jar:?] at org.apache.flink.runtime.security.contexts.HadoopSecurityContext.runSecured(HadoopSecurityContext.java:41) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] at org.apache.flink.runtime.entrypoint.ClusterEntrypoint.startCluster(ClusterEntrypoint.java:186) ~[flink-dist_2.12-1.13.2.jar:1.13.2] ... 2 more And, here is part of the log from the other job manager, which successfully started its rest api on the same port, just a few seconds earlier: 2021-09-22 15:47:20,690 INFO org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmaster.MiniDispatcherRestEndpoint [] - Rest endpoint listening at ip-10-1-2-137.ec2.internal:35485 2021-09-22 15:47:20,691 INFO org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmaster.MiniDispatcherRestEndpoint [] - http://ip-10-1-2-137.ec2.internal:35485 was granted leadership with leaderSessionID=00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000 2021-09-22 15:47:20,692 INFO org.apache.flink.runtime.jobmaster.MiniDispatcherRestEndpoint [] - Web frontend listening at http://ip-10-1-2-137.ec2.internal:35485. Do you know of any configuration that would assist with this? I thought about rest.bind-port, but the rest port already seems to be chosen dynamically. My config file has that setting commented out. Thanks
