Description
If you run a job with task.inputs=foo, let the job checkpoint, then restart it with task.inputs=bar, the last checkpoint will have foo in it. This will cause the OffsetManager to fail with:
2014-05-15 12:16:28 SamzaContainer [ERROR] Caught exception in process loop. org.apache.samza.SamzaException: Attempting to reset a stream that doesn't have offset settings SystemStream [system=kafka, stream=foo]. at org.apache.samza.checkpoint.OffsetManager$$anonfun$getSystemStreamPartitionsToReset$1$$anonfun$apply$5.apply(OffsetManager.scala:305) at org.apache.samza.checkpoint.OffsetManager$$anonfun$getSystemStreamPartitionsToReset$1$$anonfun$apply$5.apply(OffsetManager.scala:305) at scala.collection.MapLike$class.getOrElse(MapLike.scala:128) at scala.collection.AbstractMap.getOrElse(Map.scala:58) at org.apache.samza.checkpoint.OffsetManager$$anonfun$getSystemStreamPartitionsToReset$1.apply(OffsetManager.scala:305) at org.apache.samza.checkpoint.OffsetManager$$anonfun$getSystemStreamPartitionsToReset$1.apply(OffsetManager.scala:302) at scala.collection.TraversableLike$$anonfun$filter$1.apply(TraversableLike.scala:264) at scala.collection.Iterator$class.foreach(Iterator.scala:727) at scala.collection.AbstractIterator.foreach(Iterator.scala:1157) at scala.collection.MapLike$DefaultKeySet.foreach(MapLike.scala:174) at scala.collection.TraversableLike$class.filter(TraversableLike.scala:263) at scala.collection.AbstractTraversable.filter(Traversable.scala:105) at org.apache.samza.checkpoint.OffsetManager.getSystemStreamPartitionsToReset(OffsetManager.scala:302) at org.apache.samza.checkpoint.OffsetManager.stripResetStreams(OffsetManager.scala:287) at org.apache.samza.checkpoint.OffsetManager.start(OffsetManager.scala:165) at org.apache.samza.container.SamzaContainer.startOffsetManager(SamzaContainer.scala:558) at org.apache.samza.container.SamzaContainer.run(SamzaContainer.scala:492) at org.apache.samza.container.SamzaContainer$.main(SamzaContainer.scala:82) at org.apache.samza.container.SamzaContainer.main(SamzaContainer.scala)
We should just warn in this case, rather than fail the container.
