[infinispan-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Resolved: (ISPN-944) Server error messages not being returned to clients

Server error messages not being returned to clients --------------------------------------------------- Key: ISPN-944 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/ISPN-944 Project: Infinispan Issue Type: Bug Components: Cache Server Affects Versions: 4.2.0.Final, 4.2.1.CR3 Reporter: Galder Zamarreño Assignee: Galder Zamarreño Labels: hotrod, java_hotrod_client Fix For: 4.2.1.FINAL, 5.0.0.BETA1 When a Java Hot Rod client requests a non-existing cache, RemoteCacheManager throws a rather cryptic exception: {code}Feb 9, 2011 5:52:48 PM org.infinispan.client.hotrod.impl.operations.HotRodOperation checkForErrorsInResponseStatus WARNING: Error status received from the server: for message id 2 Exception in thread "main" org.infinispan.client.hotrod.exceptions.HotRodClientException: id [2] code [133] at org.infinispan.client.hotrod.impl.operations.HotRodOperation.checkForErrorsInResponseStatus(HotRodOperation.java:129) at org.infinispan.client.hotrod.impl.operations.HotRodOperation.readHeaderAndValidate(HotRodOperation.java:98) at org.infinispan.client.hotrod.impl.operations.AbstractKeyValueOperation.sendPutOperation(AbstractKeyValueOperation.java:48) at org.infinispan.client.hotrod.impl.operations.PutOperation.executeOperation(PutOperation.java:27) at org.infinispan.client.hotrod.impl.operations.RetryOnFailureOperation.execute(RetryOnFailureOperation.java:38) at org.infinispan.client.hotrod.impl.RemoteCacheImpl.put(RemoteCacheImpl.java:166) at org.infinispan.CacheSupport.put(CacheSupport.java:28) at org.example.Sample.main(Sample.java:14){code} For 4.2.x, try to cleanup the exception so that it's a more friendly one. For 5.x, returning null would make more sense. However, I'd rather see this limitation going away (as indicated in ISPN-833) and that would stop getCache() from returning anything other than a running cache of some sort. Bottom line, the end result is to not return null, so not much point in having an intermdiate API change when we're gonna change it again soon after. To sum up, this jira will be limited to making the exception more user friendly.
