             Summary: Job is marked as FAILED after serialization exception
                 Key: FLINK-10204
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-10204
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Ben La Monica


We have a long running flink job that eventually fails and is shut down due to an internal serialization exception that we keep on getting. Here is the stack trace:
{code:java}

I think I have tracked down the issue to a mismatch in the serialization/deserialization/copy code in the StreamElementSerializer with regards to the LATENCY_MARKER.

The Serialization logic writes 3 LONGs and an INT. The copy logic only writes (and reads) a LONG and 2 INTs. Adding a test for the LatencyMarker throws an EOFException, and fixing the copy code causes the test to pass again.

I've written a unit test that highlights the problem, and have written the code to correct it.

I'll submit a PR that goes along with it.
