it was using GroupByContainerCount instead.

Subject: RE: Old style "low level" Tasks with alternative
deployment
model(s)
Well I figured it out. My specific issue was due to a simple
dependency problem where I had gotten an older version of the
Jackson-mapper library.
However the code was throwing NoSuchMethodError (an Error instead
of
Exception) and being silently dropped. I created a pull request to
handle any Throwable in ScheduleAfterDebounceTime.
https://github.com/apache/samza/pull/450
I'm now running into an issue with the generation of the JobModel
and the ProcessorId. The ZkJobCoordinator has a ProcessorId that is
a Guid, but when GroupByContainerIds class (my TaskNameGrouper)
creates the ContainerModels, it is using the ContainerId (a numeric
value,
0,1,2,etc)
as the ProcessorId (~ line 105). This results in the JobModel that
is generated and published immediately causing the processor to
quit with this
message:
INFO o.apache.samza.zk.ZkJobCoordinator - New JobModel does not
contain pid=38c637bf-9c2b-4856-afc4-5b1562711cfb. Stopping this
processor.
I was assuming I should be using GroupByContainerIds as my
TaskNameGrouper. I don't see any other promising implementations.
Am I just missing something?
Thanks,
Thunder

Attached. I don't see any threads actually running this code which
is odd.
There's my main thread that's waiting for the whole thing to
finish, the "debounce-thread-0" (which logged the other surrounding
messages below) has
this:
