Situation

After updating I started customizing menu items. Then I noticed some performance issues and checked the deamons.
Phabricator now tells me that the daemons would not run. So I restarted them but the warning an performance issues still exists.

So I checked the daemons status page and found a lot of hanging transcations / tasks:

Reproduction steps

  • Create a new menu item like this:
    • Edit Menu -Global Menu Items -Add new Menu Item (Application) -Select any, with or without name
  • The item wille be created
  • Now you get an tailing task and the corresponding error in the phd log.

Questions

  • Is there a way to clean the task queue or to find the source?
    • deleted them with <phabricator_roo>/bin/worker cancel --class PhabricatorApplicationTransactionPublishWorker
  • Could I set cluster.read-onlyuntil there is a fix?
    • stopped the phd daemons and set cluster to read only.

Event Timeline

OCram updated the task description. (Show Details)

@epriestley: Was deleting the active task the right way or did I broke my database or relations?

In 99% of cases, the right thing to do when you see an error in the daemon logs is:

  • report the issue to us;
  • wait for us to fix it;
  • upgrade Phabricator to pick up the fix;
  • after the upgrade, the task will complete normally.

When you cancel tasks, you permanently prevent the work they would have done from occurring. In this case, whatever tasks you cancelled will never send email, update search indexes, etc. This is probably not a major issue, but using bin/worker cancel can permanently prevent tasks from completing and should be a measure of last resort.

Repeated daemon errors in the logs are not concerning. Repeated restarts of daemons when the queue only has failing tasks are also not concerning. These are normal behaviors of the queue and things work that way to make sure that things self-heal after you upgrade with the fix.

I don't know what you mean when you say this: "Phabricator now tells me that the daemons would not run". As far as I know, we do not have any error message like that.

I am skeptical that these tasks are the root cause of whatever performance problems you observed, although it's hard to be sure since I'm not sure what you observed. The screenshot of the daemon page looks normal, and shows that the daemons have only spent about 6 seconds processing tasks in the last 15 minutes. This doesn't include time spent attempting tasks and failing, but the screenshot shows all four daemons in a "waiting" backoff state. Again, this is normal, and the expected failure mode of the daemon queue when a task can't be completed.

First of all: thank you again for the quick response and great work!

Well I never notices so many queued and leased tasks. I created about 20 menu items and it seemed like they all produced a task. These tasks never completed successful and it seems like they were restarted endlessly.

Finally, caused by the system load I got an configuration warning that says, the daemons would not run. That's what I tried to explain ^^
