Ondrej Chaloupka created JBTM-3331: -------------------------------------- Summary: LRA end should not return internal server error when precondition fails as it's considered behaviour by spec Key: JBTM-3331 URL: https://issues.redhat.com/browse/JBTM-3331 Project: JBoss Transaction Manager Issue Type: Bug Components: LRA Affects Versions: 5.10.5.Final Reporter: Ondrej Chaloupka Assignee: Ondrej Chaloupka I've spent some time with https://issues.redhat.com/browse/JBTM-3318 recently and I have a doubt about behaviour of the LRA. The JBTM-3318 consists of race condition on starting/enlisting/timeouting the LRA. The same issue makes failing the `TckTests#timeLimit` and `TckRecoveryTests#testCancelWhenParticipantIsUnavailable` on our slow AMS CI. I don't want to talk now about the TCK failure but about the related behaviour of the Narayana implementation. The LRA participant defines the {{timeLimit}} (https://github.com/eclipse/microprofile-lra/blob/1.0-M1/tck/src/main/java...). And what happens is that the client (TCK test) calls the LRA method, the JAX-RS filter starts a LRA on coordinator, meanwhile the timeout limit elapses, the JAX-RS filter tries to enlist the LRA participant to started LRA but it fails as the LRA was cancelled because of timeout. Now. The possible non-deterministic Narayana behaviour is that in case of failure on LRA participant enlistment the client may or may not get internal server error. It's because the LRA in timeouted state on client is tried to be cancelled (see https://github.com/jbosstm/narayana/blob/5.10.5.Final/rts/lra/lra-client/...). The {{NarayanaLRAClient#endLRA}} tries to cancel the LRA. But as the coordinator timeouted the LRA then now depends if recovery already removed the LRA or not. If the LRA was not removed yet then {{412, PRECONDITION FAILED}} is returned. If the recovery made it then {{404, NOT FOUDN}} is returned. Now the {{endLRA}} considers the {{404}} as not a failure that is considered as {{500, INTERNAL SERVER ERROR}} while the {{412, PRECONDITION FAILED}} is considered as internal server error. That should not be that way as the LRA spec considers {{412}} as "correct" error (see https://github.com/eclipse/microprofile-lra/blob/1.0-M1/api/src/main/java...). Such an anticipated return state should not be reported to client as {{500}} - {{internal server error}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v7.13.8#713008)
