bug stuck script

[owmo-dev]

Every now and then jobs seem to get stuck on executing scripts. Re-starting the workers doesn't work. Doing a "Reset" command in temporal will re-submit the jobs and suddenly the post tasks will execute without issue. I suspect there's something wrong with how I'm scheduling the work, but will need to investigate and try to find a re-produceable scenario (difficult, as it typically requires a lot of frames to render to occur).

This thread may be helpful in diagnosing the problem (it sounds similar, scheduled but not started)

I noticed the following error in the script worker

2024-08-24T02:13:20.657120Z WARN temporal_sdk_core::worker::activities: Network error while completing activity error=Status { code: Cancelled, message: "operation was canceled", source: Some(tonic::transport::Error(Transport, hyper::Error(Canceled, "connection closed"))) }

This thread may offer useful advice to investigate:

Seems like the heartbeat fixed that issue, but after updating I now have a new issue to content with...

2024-08-27T17:42:04.546Z [INFO] Worker state changed { sdkComponent: 'worker', taskQueue: 'render', state: 'FAILED' } RangeError: "length" is outside of buffer bounds at Buffer.proto.utf8Write (node:internal/buffer:1066:13) at Op.writeStringBuffer [as fn] (/Users/owmo/dev/combomash-orchestrator/node_modules/protobufjs/src/writer_buffer.js:61:13) at BufferWriter.finish (/Users/owmo/dev/combomash-orchestrator/node_modules/protobufjs/src/writer.js:453:14) at Worker.handleActivation (/Users/owmo/dev/combomash-orchestrator/node_modules/@temporalio/worker/src/worker.ts:1164:10) { code: 'ERR_BUFFER_OUT_OF_BOUNDS' }

This runs when running a sequence. My best guess is that it's too much information for Temporal's memory limit...

It looks like that is a Node bug, which is said to be fixed in today's release 22.8.0

nodejs/node#54518

nodejs/node#54524

[owmo-dev]

Down-graded to node@20 and everything is working. I'll install the update tomorrow and verify it's all working.

Down-grading to node@20 until the update goes live.

Installed [email protected] in the package for now to ensure consistency of operation

Latest installation is working without issue, I'm going to continue to use latest node build on the machine for now and will default back to local install if this occurs again for stability. Closing the issue.
