Nifi service fail to start - Removed custom processor
Hi - We developed few custom processors and built multiple work flows. Latter, I removed some custom processors (with out clearing the processors/workflows associated to it on canvas). Now nifi service fail to start as it try to instatiate the (removed) custom processors. How do we fix it?
Thanks,
-Chakri

Chakrader,
Yes the workflow today requires you to have removed those
processors/extensions from the flow before removing them from the
system classpath. In such a case it would be smooth and fine.
However, we recognize that users will not always know to do that or
remember to do that. Therefore, I think what Matt B just suggested is
a great solution.
Matt - do you mind creating a JIRA for your idea or adding to the
discussion of this ticket [1]?
Thanks
Joe

Perhaps the UI could have a placeholder for a missing processor, and the context menu or body could include more details as far as which processor it was looking for.

It may be easier if possible to add your custom processors back in to the lib dir, start your NiFi, and then remove them from the canvas. You should them be able to stay without the custom processor libraries.

It may be easier if possible to add your custom processors back in to the
lib dir, start your NiFi, and then remove them from the canvas. You should
them be able to stay without the custom processor libraries.

My approach is to modify conf/flow.xml.gz file by hand. There may be bit of
a more user friendly approach.
gunzip flow.xml.gz
vim flow.xml
gzip flow.xml
