Any expression language syntax has to be correct or the processor won’t run. 
I’m not sure there is any way to work around that except to explicitly check 
that the value you are trying to evaluate is valid. Is the attribute 
“tradeDate” coming from the contents of a flow file or is it defined somewhere 
else. Can you ensure it is a valid date in that format before hand?

Thanks

Hi, the error is not in the processor itself. It's in the expression used 
against flowfile attributes. For example inside the text, I have:

<EventDate>${tradeDate:toDate('MM/dd/yyyy'):format("yyyy-MM-dd'T'00:00:00.0000000")}</EventDate>
And that is the root issue. If it's unable to convert it, the flow cannot be 
consumed. How can I evaluate attributes in a non-blocker way?

Hi Juan,

What version of NiFi are you running on?
What mode are you running ReplaceText in, all text or line by line?
Other settings that might be important? What’s your RegEx look like (if your 
able to share).

Hi all,

I'm seeing that ReplaceText is not able to consume messages that does not match 
regex. It keeps all the messages in the input queue instead of sending them to 
failure relationship. Is this the intended behavior or I have to file a ticket 
in order to be fixed? In that way, the processor is not able to process bad 
messages and converts in the bottleneck of a flow
