Hello again! I think i’ve tracked down an issue with MS Teams notifications and the notification queue in general where only certain flow run states were being sent. This logger message appears:
Copy code
prefect-orion-1  | 21:53:34.590 | DEBUG   | prefect.orion.services.flowrunnotifications - Got 3 notifications from queue.
However, it looks like the code intends for only one notification to be read off the queue in the first place: https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/blob/main/src/prefect/orion/services/flow_run_notifications.py#L38-L42.
The behavior I’m seeing is that if we have notifications for
Running
and
Failed
in succession, only one of them gets read off the queue and the other is discarded.
If i remove the notification for the
Running
state, then the
Failed
notification makes it out of the queue. If there’s more time (I believe the polling time is 4 seconds) in the flow run between the Running and Failed notifications getting enqueued, then both seem to get read off appropriately.
I was only able to get this far thanks to this: https://prefect-community.slack.com/archives/CL09KU1K7/p1668038154353999 — so this already feels like progress.
Other details: still running Prefect 2.6.4 + Postgres in Docker.

Thanks for the additional details! We’ll look into this.

cc @Zach Angell perhaps this broke during the query optimizations?
Can you share the output of
prefect version
where you’re running your server? Curious if you’re using Postgres or SQLite since these queries are different for each backend.

Great thanks!
I can’t reproduce, can you also get the versions
pip show sqlalchemy asyncpg
?

Our tests run against Postgres 13 in CI but I can’t reproduce this against 14 locally either.
Can you turn on
PREFECT_ORION_DATABASE_ECHO
t

Tim Ricablanca

11/10/2022, 11:43 PM
i did
prefect config set PREFECT_ORION_DATABASE_ECHO=True
— i’ll tail the logs and try to re-run
z

Zanie

11/10/2022, 11:45 PM
I’m interested in seeing the query that’s being used to retrieve notifications, it should have
LIMIT 1
from the code but apparently that’s not working for ya’ll
t

Tim Ricablanca

11/10/2022, 11:46 PM
does the server need to be bounced for that setting to take effect? i’m also running the logging hotfix you posted yesterday, so i’m seeing the log streams for prefect and uvicorn but the DB is not echoing
z

Zanie

11/10/2022, 11:47 PM
Yeah the config isn’t hot-reloaded
t

Tim Ricablanca

11/10/2022, 11:47 PM
okay will bounce the container with config set
okay, got the super verbose logs now. re-running the test flow.
is this what you’re looking for:

oh i missed that!
i love a good prepared statement(?) bug
i unfortunately don’t have an orion environment set up in my debugger at the moment otherwise i’d try to step through where that CTE is built and see if it’s just a bad value passed or if sqlalchemy is not happy with something.

With a debugger:
Copy code
(Pdb) print(notification_details_stmt.compile(compile_kwargs={"literal_binds": True}))
WITH queued_notifications AS 
(DELETE FROM flow_run_notification_queue WHERE flow_run_notification_queue.id IN (SELECT flow_run_notification_queue.id 
FROM flow_run_notification_queue ORDER BY flow_run_notification_queue.updated
 LIMIT 1 FOR UPDATE) RETURNING flow_run_notification_queue.id, flow_run_notification_queue.flow_run_notification_policy_id, flow_run_notification_queue.flow_run_state_id)
 SELECT queued_notifications.id AS queue_id, flow_run_notification_policy.id AS flow_run_notification_policy_id, flow_run_notification_policy.message_template AS flow_run_notification_policy_message_template, flow_run_notification_policy.block_document_id, flow.id AS flow_id, flow.name AS flow_name, flow_run.id AS flow_run_id, flow_run.name AS flow_run_name, flow_run.parameters AS flow_run_parameters, flow_run_state.type AS flow_run_state_type, flow_run_state.name AS flow_run_state_name, flow_run_state.timestamp AS flow_run_state_timestamp, flow_run_state.message AS flow_run_state_message

I’m going to have to point someone else at this tomorrow, it looks sensible and I can’t reproduce the issue myself but it’s clearly happening on your end from the log 🙂

That sounds good - appreciate you digging in! Happy to provide any other Orion runtime environment details as needed.

Zanie

11/11/2022, 12:15 AM
Minor note, mine printed
LIMIT :param_1
for Postgres and
LIMIT %s
for SQLite — are you sure it’s running against postgres as intended?

Tim Ricablanca

11/11/2022, 12:17 AM
from the orion settings panel:
PREFECT_ORION_DATABASE_CONNECTION_URL: <postgresql+asyncpg://postgres>@...

Zanie

11/11/2022, 12:18 AM
That’s pretty promising 🙂 I don’t think there’s a CTE for SQLite anyway, the query would look pretty different.

I mean, you never know what else they’ll figure out how to package into SQLite… i can also share the docker-compose i’m launching this from, minus any interesting-to-only-us bits

I can do that. Thanks for digging in this far.
Hey @Zanie, I’ve filed that here: https://github.com/PrefectHQ/prefect/issues/7568. Let me know how I can help you or the other community engineers on this one. Thanks again!
