I'm trying the new ArrayNode implementation of

map_task

but my subtasks are stuck in the "Queued" state. Seeing the following in the Flyte admin logs.

Request failed due to [rpc error: code = NotFound desc = Failed to get existing node execution id: [node_id:"dn0" execution_id:<project:"flytetester" domain:"development" name:"eric-vtph869yqo6qyxstzp2diw" > ] with err: entry not found]. If it's an unauthenticated error, we will attempt to establish an authenticated context.

ArrayNode event recording failed: [ExecutionNotFound: The execution that the event belongs to does not exist, caused by [rpc error: code = NotFound desc = Failed to get existing node execution id: [node_id:"dn0" execution_id:<project:"flytetester" domain:"development" name:"eric-vtph869yqo6qyxstzp2diw" > ] with err: entry not found]]

failed Execute for node. Error: ExecutionNotFound: The execution that the event belongs to does not exist, caused by [rpc error: code = NotFound desc = Failed to get existing node execution id: [node_id:"dn0" execution_id:<project:"flytetester" domain:"development" name:"eric-vtph869yqo6qyxstzp2diw" > ] with err: entry not found]

can you copy/paste in a minimal repro?

@dynamic
def my_subtask(input: str) -> str:
    <http://logging.info|logging.info>('Starting my_subtask')

    i = 0
    while i < 60:
        logging.info(f'subtask Iteration - {i}')
        sleep(10)
        i += 1
    
    return f"subtask - {input}"

@dynamic
def example_task(input: str) -> str:
    <http://logging.info|logging.info>('Starting example_task')

    map_task(my_subtask)(
        input=["a", "b", "c", "d", "e"]
    )

    return "hi"

This works if I just swap in the old

map_task

.

helm chart is flyte-core (hi)

can you try changing

my_subtask

to a normal task instead of a dynamic task?

ah, okay. I'll give that a shot

actually that makes less sense.

Looking

actually.. it's not quite working turns out if I have

example_task

set to

task

instead of

dynamic

, I lose parallelism of the

map_task

and the tasks are executed serially. I tried setting

concurrency

but that didn't fix it. So I have the following situation • old map_task +

example_task

as

@task

-> executes serially • old map_task +

example_task

as

@dynamic

-> executes in parallel (what I want) • new map_task +

example_task

as

@task

-> executes serially • new map_task +

example_task

as

@dynamic

-> doesn't launch subtask pods

yeah, confirmed that the bug is happening with

@dynamic + array node map tasks

. And just to clarify a misconception, nested tasks (in this case a map task running as part of another

@task

) are not distributed, i.e. they all run in the same container (serially in the original container. In this latest flytekit release you'll start seeing a warning that explains this (more specifically you'll see a message that says

"You are not supposed to nest @Task/@Workflow inside a @Task!"

in the logs).

oh okay. thanks! Do you think this is something you guys would be trying to fix soon?

Yes, for sure. We take correctness bugs very seriously. We’ll update this thread after an initial investigation.

Hey @square-boots-41503! I had a chance to dive into this a bit. The issue is the

ArrayNode

event reporting does not match node IDs when it's a child node. So in addition to the dynamic as you mentioned, this doesn't work in subworkflows or conditionals either. I have a small PR that corrects the execution, but it is not meshing well with the UI. We're having some deeper internal discussion to sort all of this out.

np! thanks for getting on top of it so quickly.
