Description

When serializing application domain objects using Deltas (i.e. application domain types implement org.apache.geode.Delta) between client and server, Apache Geode will log a completely useless error message to the log output (e.g. file) when Apache Geode encounters a problem applying the "delta"...

[info 2018/11/27 22:14:23.196 PST <ServerConnection on port 64301 Thread 1> tid=33] Error applying delta for key X of region /Example

Minimally, providing the underlying Exception's (i.e. cause) message would, perhaps, provide some relief and insight!

This is with the log-level already set to config. I should not have to set the log-level to debug in order to ascertain the problem. At debug, or especially trace, I would expect to see a Stack Track even.
