Error Codes¶
Overview¶
The majority of the errors are a result of some request processing. They are logged and returned to the user as a failed gRPC response containing the status code, an optional status message and optional metadata.
This approach remains unchanged in principle while we aim at enhancing it by providing:
- improved consistency of the returned errors across API endpoints,
- richer error payload format with clearly distinguished machine readable parts to facilitate automated error handling strategies,
- complete inventory of all error codes with an explanation, suggested resolution and other useful information.
The goal is to enable users, developers and operators to act on the encountered errors in a self-service manner, either in an automated-way or manually.
Glossary¶
- Error
Represents an occurrence of a failure. Consists of:
- an error code id,
- a gRPC status code (determined by its error category),
- an error category,
- a correlation id,
- a human readable message,
- and optional additional metadata.
You can think of it as an instantiation of an error code.
- Error code
- Represents a class of failures. Identified by its error code id (we may use error code and error code id interchangeably in this document). Belongs to a single error category.
- Error category
- A broad categorization of error codes that you can base your error handling strategies on. Map to exactly one gRPC status code. We recommended to deal with errors based on their error category. However, if error category itself is too generic you can act on particular error codes.
- Correlation id
- A value whose purpose is to allow the user to clearly identify the request, such that the operator can lookup any log information associated with this error. We use request’s submission id for correlation id.
Anatomy of an Error¶
Errors returned to users contain a gRPC status code, a description and additional machine readable information represented in the rich gRPC error model.
Error Description¶
We use the standard gRPC description that additionally adheres to our custom message format:
<ERROR_CODE_ID>(<CATEGORY_ID>,<CORRELATION_ID_PREFIX>):<HUMAN_READABLE_MESSAGE>
The constituent parts are:
<ERROR_CODE_ID>
- a unique non empty string containing at most 63 characters: upper-cased letters, underscores or digits. Identifies corresponding error code id.<CATEGORY_ID>
- a small integer identifying the corresponding error category.<CORRELATION_ID_PREFIX>
- a string aimed at identifying originating request. Absence of one is indicated by value0
. If present it is an 8 character long prefix of the corresponding request’s submission id. Full correlation id can be found in error’s additional machine readable information (see Additional Machine Readable Information).:
- a colon character that serves as a separator for the machine and human readable parts.<HUMAN_READABLE_MESSAGE>
- a message targeted at a human reader. Should never be parsed by applications, as the description might change in future releases to improve clarity.
In a concrete example an error description might look like this:
TRANSACTION_NOT_FOUND(11,12345): Transaction not found, or not visible.
Additional Machine Readable Information¶
We use following error details:
- A mandatory
com.google.rpc.ErrorInfo
containing error code id.- A mandatory
com.google.rpc.RequestInfo
containing (not-truncated) correlation id (or0
if correlation id is not available).- An optional
com.google.rpc.RetryInfo
containing retry interval with milliseconds resolution.- An optional
com.google.rpc.ResourceInfo
containing information about the resource the failure is based on. Any request that fails due to some well-defined resource issues (such as contract, contract-key, package, party, template, domain, etc..) will contain these. Particular resources are implementation specific and vary across ledger implementations.
Many errors will include more information, but there is no guarantee given that additional information will be preserved across versions.
Prevent Security Leaks in Error Codes¶
For any error that could leak information to an attacker, the system will return an error message via the API that will not leak any valuable information. The log file will contain the full error message.
Work With Error Codes¶
This example shows how a user can extract the relevant error information.
object SampleClientSide {
import com.google.rpc.ResourceInfo
import com.google.rpc.{ErrorInfo, RequestInfo, RetryInfo}
import io.grpc.StatusRuntimeException
import scala.jdk.CollectionConverters._
def example(): Unit = {
try {
DummmyServer.serviceEndpointDummy()
} catch {
case e: StatusRuntimeException =>
// Converting to a status object.
val status = io.grpc.protobuf.StatusProto.fromThrowable(e)
// Extracting gRPC status code.
assert(status.getCode == io.grpc.Status.Code.ABORTED.value())
assert(status.getCode == 10)
// Extracting error message, both
// machine oriented part: "MY_ERROR_CODE_ID(2,full-cor):",
// and human oriented part: "A user oriented message".
assert(status.getMessage == "MY_ERROR_CODE_ID(2,full-cor): A user oriented message")
// Getting all the details
val rawDetails: Seq[com.google.protobuf.Any] = status.getDetailsList.asScala.toSeq
// Extracting error code id, error category id and optionally additional metadata.
assert {
rawDetails.collectFirst {
case any if any.is(classOf[ErrorInfo]) =>
val v = any.unpack(classOf[ErrorInfo])
assert(v.getReason == "MY_ERROR_CODE_ID")
assert(v.getMetadataMap.asScala.toMap == Map("category" -> "2", "foo" -> "bar"))
}.isDefined
}
// Extracting full correlation id, if present.
assert {
rawDetails.collectFirst {
case any if any.is(classOf[RequestInfo]) =>
val v = any.unpack(classOf[RequestInfo])
assert(v.getRequestId == "full-correlation-id-123456790")
}.isDefined
}
// Extracting retry information if the error is retryable.
assert {
rawDetails.collectFirst {
case any if any.is(classOf[RetryInfo]) =>
val v = any.unpack(classOf[RetryInfo])
assert(v.getRetryDelay.getSeconds == 123, v.getRetryDelay.getSeconds)
assert(v.getRetryDelay.getNanos == 456 * 1000 * 1000, v.getRetryDelay.getNanos)
}.isDefined
}
// Extracting resource if the error pertains to some well defined resource.
assert {
rawDetails.collectFirst {
case any if any.is(classOf[ResourceInfo]) =>
val v = any.unpack(classOf[ResourceInfo])
assert(v.getResourceType == "CONTRACT_ID")
assert(v.getResourceName == "someContractId")
}.isDefined
}
}
}
}
Error Categories Inventory¶
The error categories allow to group errors such that application logic can be built in a sensible way to automatically deal with errors and decide whether to retry a request or escalate to the operator.
TransientServerFailure¶
Category id: 1
gRPC status code: UNAVAILABLE
Default log level: INFO
Description: One of the services required to process the request was not available.
Resolution: Expectation: transient failure that should be handled by retrying the request with appropriate backoff.
Retry strategy: Retry quickly in load balancer.
DeadlineExceededRequestStateUnknown¶
Category id: 3
gRPC status code: DEADLINE_EXCEEDED
Default log level: INFO
Description: The request might not have been processed, as its deadline expired before its completion was signalled. Note that for requests that change the state of the system, this error may be returned even if the request has completed successfully. Note that known and well-defined timeouts are signalled as [[ContentionOnSharedResources]], while this category indicates that the state of the request is unknown.
Resolution: Expectation: the deadline might have been exceeded due to transient resource congestion or due to a timeout in the request processing pipeline being too low. The transient errors might be solved by the application retrying. The non-transient errors will require operator intervention to change the timeouts.
Retry strategy: Retry for a limited number of times with deduplication.
SystemInternalAssumptionViolated¶
Category id: 4
gRPC status code: INTERNAL
Default log level: ERROR
Description: Request processing failed due to a violation of system internal invariants. This error is exposed on the API with grpc-status INTERNAL without any details for security reasons
Resolution: Expectation: this is due to a bug in the implementation or data corruption in the systems databases. Resolution will require operator intervention, and potentially vendor support.
Retry strategy: Retry after operator intervention.
AuthInterceptorInvalidAuthenticationCredentials¶
Category id: 6
gRPC status code: UNAUTHENTICATED
Default log level: WARN
Description: The request does not have valid authentication credentials for the operation. This error is exposed on the API with grpc-status UNAUTHENTICATED without any details for security reasons
Resolution: Expectation: this is an application bug, application misconfiguration or ledger-level misconfiguration. Resolution requires application and/or ledger operator intervention.
Retry strategy: Retry after application operator intervention.
InsufficientPermission¶
Category id: 7
gRPC status code: PERMISSION_DENIED
Default log level: WARN
Description: The caller does not have permission to execute the specified operation. This error is exposed on the API with grpc-status PERMISSION_DENIED without any details for security reasons
Resolution: Expectation: this is an application bug or application misconfiguration. Resolution requires application operator intervention.
Retry strategy: Retry after application operator intervention.
SecurityAlert¶
Category id: 5
gRPC status code: INVALID_ARGUMENT
Default log level: WARN
Description: A potential attack or a faulty peer component has been detected. This error is exposed on the API with grpc-status INVALID_ARGUMENT without any details for security reasons.
Resolution: Expectation: this can be a severe issue that requires operator attention or intervention, and potentially vendor support. It means that the system has detected invalid information that can be attributed to either faulty or malicious manipulation of data coming from a peer source.
Retry strategy: Errors in this category are non-retryable.
InvalidIndependentOfSystemState¶
Category id: 8
gRPC status code: INVALID_ARGUMENT
Default log level: INFO
Description: The request is invalid independent of the state of the system.
Resolution: Expectation: this is an application bug or ledger-level misconfiguration (e.g. request size limits). Resolution requires application and/or ledger operator intervention.
Retry strategy: Retry after application operator intervention.
InvalidGivenCurrentSystemStateOther¶
Category id: 9
gRPC status code: FAILED_PRECONDITION
Default log level: INFO
Description: The mutable state of the system does not satisfy the preconditions required to execute the request. We consider the whole Daml ledger including ledger config, parties, packages, users and command deduplication to be mutable system state. Thus all Daml interpretation errors are reported as this error or one of its specializations.
Resolution: ALREADY_EXISTS and NOT_FOUND are special cases for the existence and non-existence of well-defined entities within the system state; e.g., a .dalf package, contracts ids, contract keys, or a transaction at an offset. OUT_OF_RANGE is a special case for reading past a range. Violations of the Daml ledger model always result in these kinds of errors. Expectation: this is due to application-level bugs, misconfiguration or contention on application-visible resources; and might be resolved by retrying later, or after changing the state of the system. Handling these errors requires an application-specific strategy and/or operator intervention.
Retry strategy: Retry after application operator intervention.
InvalidGivenCurrentSystemStateResourceExists¶
Category id: 10
gRPC status code: ALREADY_EXISTS
Default log level: INFO
Description: Special type of InvalidGivenCurrentSystemState referring to a well-defined resource.
Resolution: Same as [[InvalidGivenCurrentSystemStateOther]].
Retry strategy: Inspect resource failure and retry after resource failure has been resolved (depends on type of resource and application).
InvalidGivenCurrentSystemStateResourceMissing¶
Category id: 11
gRPC status code: NOT_FOUND
Default log level: INFO
Description: Special type of InvalidGivenCurrentSystemState referring to a well-defined resource.
Resolution: Same as [[InvalidGivenCurrentSystemStateOther]].
Retry strategy: Inspect resource failure and retry after resource failure has been resolved (depends on type of resource and application).
InvalidGivenCurrentSystemStateSeekAfterEnd¶
Category id: 12
gRPC status code: OUT_OF_RANGE
Default log level: INFO
Description: This error is only used by the Ledger API server in connection with invalid offsets.
Resolution: Expectation: this error is only used by the Ledger API server in connection with invalid offsets.
Retry strategy: Retry after application operator intervention.
BackgroundProcessDegradationWarning¶
Category id: 13
gRPC status code: N/A
Default log level: WARN
Description: This error category is used internally to signal to the system operator an internal degradation.
Resolution: Inspect details of the specific error for more information.
Retry strategy: Not an API error, therefore not retryable.
InternalUnsupportedOperation¶
Category id: 14
gRPC status code: UNIMPLEMENTED
Default log level: ERROR
Description: This error category is used to signal that an unimplemented code-path has been triggered by a client or participant operator request. This error is exposed on the API with grpc-status UNIMPLEMENTED without any details for security reasons
Resolution: This error is caused by a ledger-level misconfiguration or by an implementation bug. Resolution requires participant operator intervention.
Retry strategy: Errors in this category are non-retryable.
