Postgres connector config validation fails because current connector is occupying replication slot

    XMLWordPrintable

Details

    Description

      When updating the config of a Postgres connector, it runs into a validation issue, complaining that the replication slot is already taken.

      It looks like the validation of the connector config does not keep into account that the current connector (of which we want to update the config) is still running: https://github.com/debezium/debezium/blob/master/debezium-connector-postgres/src/m[…]in/java/io/debezium/connector/postgresql/PostgresConnector.java.

      Is this intended and should we first pause the connector, update the config and then start it again?

          • Major - To be worked after higher priority work items are addressed. When the severity is high and the effort to change it is low to moderate, this term is chosen. Issues in this category likely have an existing workaround but implementation or execution may be non-trivial.

          • Minor - To be worked after urgent, high, and medium priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of the issue is low, or the complexity or effort to correct it may be higher, relatively speaking. For low priority issues, known workarounds exist or are not needed due to the trivial effort needed to address the issue.
