[jira] [Commented] (FLINK-5633) ClassCastException: X cannot be
cast to X when re-submitting a job.
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-5633?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=16130917#comment-16130917 ]
Svend Vanderveken commented on FLINK-5633:
------------------------------------------
Hi all,
I am hitting exactly the same issue, although I am not using the `SpecificDatumReader` directly but rather using Confluent's Avro deserializer. We opted for this one since it has the advantage of being integrated with the Schema registry, and thus validating the schemas at runtime.
I am not the first person to encounter this exact situation and I found and commented the PR below, which essentially suggests to apply the fix mentioned by [~gcaliari] to that deserializer.
https://github.com/confluentinc/schema-registry/pull/509
[~StephanEwen], [~gcaliari], feel free to add comments on that PR if you think it should move forward, I think such kind of update would greatly help to integrate Kafka and Flink through Avro and the Schema Registry.

> In YARN setup there are several sources where classes are loaded from: Flink lib directory, YARN lib directories, user code. The first two sources are handled by system classloader, the last one is loaded by FlinkUserCodeClassLoader.
> My streaming job parses Avro-encoded data using SpecificRecord facility. In essence, the job looks like this: Source -> Avro parser (Map) -> Sink. Parallelism is 1. Job operates inside a long-lived YARN session. I have a subclass of SpecificRecord, say it's name is MySpecificRecord. From class loading perspective, Avro library classes, including the SpecificRecord, are loaded by system class loader from YARN lib dir - such classes are shared across different Flink tasks within task manager. On the other side, MySpecificRecord is in the job fat jar, so it gets loaded by FlinkUserCodeClassLoader. Upon every job restart, task gets a new FlinkUserCodeClassLoader instance, so classes from user code are confined to a task instance.
> Simply put, the parsing itself looks like this:
> val bean = new SpecificDatumReader[MySpecificRecord](MySpecificRecord.getClassSchema).read(...)
> Now, the scenario:
> 1. I start my job. Parsing is initiated, so the SpecificDatumReader and SpecificData get loaded by system classloader. A new FlinkUserCodeClassloader is instantiated, let's denote its instance as "A". MySpecificRecord then gets loaded by A.
> 2. SpecificData gets a singleton SpecificData.INSTANCE that holds a cache that maps some string key derived from Avro schema to the implementing class. So during parsing I get MySpecificRecord (A) cached there.
> 3. I stop the job and re-submit it. The JVM process is the same, so all standard Avro classes, including SpecificData, remain loaded. A new task instance is created and gets a new FlinkUserCodeClassLoader instance, let's name it "B". A new MySpecificRecord class incarnation is loaded by B. From JVM standpoint MySpecificRecord (B) is different from MySpecificRecord (A), even though their bytecode is identical.
> 4. The job starts parsing again. SpecificDatumReader consults SpecificData.INSTANCE's cache for any stashed classes and finds MySpecificRecord (A) there.
> 5. SpecificDatumReader uses the cached MySpecificRecord (A) to instantiate a bean for filling the parsed data in.
> 6. SpecificDatumReader hands the filled instance of MySpecificRecord (A) back to job.
> 7. Job tries to cast MySpecificRecord (A) to MySpecificRecord (B).
> 8. ClassCastException :^(
> I fixed the issue by not using the SpecificData.INSTANCE singleton (even though this is considered a common and expected practice). I feed every parser a new instance of SpecificData. This way the class cache is confined to a parser instance and gets recycled along with it.
