Error code: 3202

Message: There were already 1000 jobs created in past 3600 seconds, exceeding rate limit: 1000 job creations per 3600 seconds.
Cause: Too many Databricks runs in an hour.
Recommendation: Check all pipelines that use this Databricks workspace for their job creation rate. If pipelines launched too many Databricks runs in aggregate, migrate some pipelines to a new workspace.

Message: Could not parse request object: Expected 'key' and 'value' to be set for JSON map field base_parameters, got 'key: "..."' instead.
Cause: Authoring error: No value provided for the parameter.
Recommendation: Inspect the pipeline JSON and ensure all parameters in the baseParameters notebook specify a nonempty value.

Message: User: 'SimpleUserContext{userId=..., name=user@company.com, orgId=...}' is not authorized to access cluster.
Cause: The user who generated the access token isn't allowed to access the Databricks cluster specified in the linked service.
Recommendation: Ensure the user has the required permissions in the workspace.

Message: Job is not fully initialized yet. Please retry later.
Cause: The job hasn't initialized.
Recommendation: Wait and try again later.

Error code: 3203

Message: The cluster is in Terminated state, not available to receive jobs. Please fix the cluster or retry later.
Cause: The cluster was terminated. For interactive clusters, this issue might be a race condition.
Recommendation: To avoid this error, use job clusters.

Error code: 3204

Message: Job execution failed.
Cause: Error messages indicate various issues, such as an unexpected cluster state or a specific activity. Often, no error message appears.
Recommendation: N/A

Error code: 3208

Message: An error occurred while sending the request.
Cause: The network connection to the Databricks service was interrupted.
Recommendation: If you're using a self-hosted integration runtime, make sure that the network connection is reliable from the integration runtime nodes. If you're using Azure integration runtime, retry usually works.

The Boolean run output starts coming as string instead of expected int

Symptoms: Your Boolean run output starts coming as string (for example, "0" or "1") instead of expected int (for example, 0 or 1).

You noticed this change on September 28, 2021 at around 9 AM IST when your pipeline relying on this output started failing. No change was made on the pipeline, and the Boolean output data arrived as expected prior to the failure.
Cause: This issue is caused by a recent change, which is by design. After the change, if the result is a number that starts with zero, Azure Data Factory will convert the number to the octal value, which is a bug. This number is always 0 or 1, which never caused issues before the change. So to fix the octal conversion, the string output is passed from the Notebook run as is.
Recommendation: Change the if condition to something like if(value=="0").

Azure Data Lake Analytics

Cause: There was an internal error while trying to read the Service Principal or instantiating the MSI authentication.
Recommendation: Consider providing a service principal, which has permissions to create an HDInsight cluster in the provided subscription and try again. Verify that the Manage Identities are set up correctly.

Error code: 2300

Message: Failed to submit the job '%jobId;' to the cluster '%cluster;'. Error: %errorMessage;.
Cause: The error message contains a message similar to The remote name could not be resolved.. The provided cluster URI might be invalid.
Recommendation: Verify that the cluster hasn't been deleted, and that the provided URI is correct. When you open the URI in a browser, you should see the Ambari UI. If the cluster is in a virtual network, the URI should be the private URI. To open it, use a Virtual Machine (VM) that is part of the same virtual network.

For more information, see Directly connect to Apache Hadoop services.

Cause: If the error message contains a message similar to A task was canceled., the job submission timed out.
Recommendation: The problem could be either general HDInsight connectivity or network connectivity. First confirm that the HDInsight Ambari UI is available from any browser. Then check that your credentials are still valid.

If you're using a self-hosted integrated runtime (IR), perform this step from the VM or machine where the self-hosted IR is installed. Then try submitting the job again.

For more information, read Ambari Web UI.

Cause: When the error message contains a message similar to User admin is locked out in Ambari or Unauthorized: Ambari user name or password is incorrect, the credentials for HDInsight are incorrect or have expired.
Recommendation: Correct the credentials and redeploy the linked service. First verify that the credentials work on HDInsight by opening the cluster URI on any browser and trying to sign in. If the credentials don't work, you can reset them from the Azure portal.

For ESP cluster, reset the password through self service password reset.

Cause: When the error message contains a message similar to 502 - Web server received an invalid response while acting as a gateway or proxy server, this error is returned by HDInsight service.
Recommendation: A 502 error often occurs when your Ambari Server process was shut down. You can restart the Ambari Services by rebooting the head node.
1. Connect to one of your nodes on HDInsight using SSH.
2. Identify your active head node host by running ping headnodehost.
3. Connect to your active head node as Ambari Server sits on the active head node using SSH.
4. Reboot the active head node.
  
  For more information, look through the Azure HDInsight troubleshooting documentation. For example:

Cause: When the error message contains a message similar to Unable to service the submit job request as templeton service is busy with too many submit job requests or Queue root.joblauncher already has 500 applications, cannot accept submission of application, too many jobs are being submitted to HDInsight at the same time.
Recommendation: Limit the number of concurrent jobs submitted to HDInsight. Refer to activity concurrency if the jobs are being submitted by the same activity. Change the triggers so the concurrent pipeline runs are spread out over time.

Refer to HDInsight documentation to adjust templeton.parallellism.job.submit as the error suggests.

Error code: 2301

Message: Could not get the status of the application '%physicalJobId;' from the HDInsight service. Received the following error: %message;. Please refer to HDInsight troubleshooting documentation or contact their support for further assistance.
Cause: HDInsight cluster or service has issues.
Recommendation: This error occurs when the service doesn't receive a response from HDInsight cluster when attempting to request the status of the running job. This issue might be on the cluster itself, or HDInsight service might have an outage.

Refer to HDInsight troubleshooting documentation, or contact Microsoft support for further assistance.

Error code: 2302

Message: Hadoop job failed with exit code '%exitCode;'. See '%logPath;/stderr' for more details. Alternatively, open the Ambari UI on the HDI cluster and find the logs for the job '%jobId;'. Contact HDInsight team for further support.
Cause: The job was submitted to the HDI cluster and failed there.
Recommendation:

Check Ambari UI:
1. Ensure that all services are still running.
2. From Ambari UI, check the alert section in your dashboard.
  1. For more information on alerts and resolutions to alerts, see Managing and Monitoring a Cluster.
3. Review your YARN memory. If your YARN memory is high, the processing of your jobs may be delayed. If you do not have enough resources to accommodate your Spark application/job, scale up the cluster to ensure the cluster has enough memory and cores.
Run a Sample test job.
1. If you run the same job on HDInsight backend, check that it succeeded. For examples of sample runs, see Run the MapReduce examples included in HDInsight
If the job still failed on HDInsight, check the application logs and information, which to provide to Support:
1. Check whether the job was submitted to YARN. If the job wasn't submitted to yarn, use --master yarn.
2. If the application finished execution, collect the start time and end time of the YARN Application. If the application didn't complete the execution, collect Start time/Launch time.
3. Check and collect application log with yarn logs -applicationId <Insert_Your_Application_ID>.
4. Check and collect the yarn Resource Manager logs under the /var/log/hadoop-yarn/yarn directory.
5. If these steps are not enough to resolve the issue, contact Azure HDInsight team for support and provide the above logs and timestamps.

Message: HDInsight cluster URL '%clusterUrl;' is incorrect, it must be in URI format and the scheme must be 'https'.
Cause: The provided URL isn't in correct format.
Recommendation: Fix the cluster URL and try again.

Error code: 2342

Message: Failed to connect to HDInsight cluster: '%errorMessage;'.
Cause: Either the provided credentials are wrong for the cluster, or there was a network configuration or connection issue, or the IR is having problems connecting to the cluster.
Recommendation:
1. Verify that the credentials are correct by opening the HDInsight cluster's Ambari UI in a browser.
2. If the cluster is in Virtual Network (VNet) and a self-hosted IR is being used, the HDI URL must be the private URL in VNets, and should have -int listed after the cluster name.
  
  For example, change https://mycluster.azurehdinsight.net/ to https://mycluster-int.azurehdinsight.net/. Note the -int after mycluster, but before .azurehdinsight.net
3. If the cluster is in VNet, the self-hosted IR is being used, and the private URL was used, and yet the connection still failed, then the VM where the IR is installed had problems connecting to the HDI.
  
  Connect to the VM where the IR is installed and open the Ambari UI in a browser. Use the private URL for the cluster. This connection should work from the browser. If it doesn't, contact HDInsight support team for further assistance.
4. If self-hosted IR isn't being used, then the HDI cluster should be accessible publicly. Open the Ambari UI in a browser and check that it opens up. If there are any issues with the cluster or the services on it, contact HDInsight support team for assistance.
  
  The HDI cluster URL used in the linked service must be accessible for the IR (self-hosted or Azure) in order for the test connection to pass, and for runs to work. This state can be verified by opening the URL from a browser either from VM, or from any public machine.

HDI activity stuck in preparing for cluster

If the HDI activity is stuck in preparing for cluster, follow the guidelines below:

Make sure the timeout is greater than what is described below and wait for the execution to complete or until it is timed out, and wait for Time To Live (TTL) time before submitting new jobs.

The max default time that it takes to spin up a cluster is 2 hours, and if you have any init script, it will add up, up to another 2 hours.
Make sure the storage and HDI are provisioned in the same region.
Make sure that the service principal used for accessing the HDI cluster is valid.
If the issue still persists, as a workaround, delete the HDI linked service and re-create it with a new name.

Web Activity

Error Code: 2001

Message: The length of execution output is over limit (around 4MB currently).
Cause: The execution output is greater than 4 MB in size but the maximum supported output response payload size is 4 MB.
Recommendation: Make sure the execution output size does not exceed 4 MB. For more information, see How to scale out the size of data moving using Azure Data Factory.

General

REST continuation token NULL error

Error message: {"token":null,"range":{"min":..}

Cause: When querying across multiple partitions/pages, backend service returns continuation token in JObject format with 3 properties: token, min and max key ranges, for instance, {"token":null,"range":{"min":"05C1E9AB0DAD76","max":"05C1E9CD673398"}}). Depending on source data, querying can result 0 indicating missing token though there is more data to fetch.

Recommendation: When the continuationToken is non-null, as the string {"token":null,"range":{"min":"05C1E9AB0DAD76","max":"05C1E9CD673398"}}, it is required to call queryActivityRuns API again with the continuation token from the previous response. You need to pass the full string for the query API again. The activities will be returned in the subsequent pages for the query result. You should ignore that there is empty array in this page, as long as the full continuationToken value != null, you need continue querying. For more details, please refer to REST api for pipeline run query.

Activity stuck issue

When you observe that the activity is running much longer than your normal runs with barely no progress, it may happen to be stuck. You can try canceling it and retry to see if it helps. If it's a copy activity, you can learn about the performance monitoring and troubleshooting from Troubleshoot copy activity performance; if it's a data flow, learn from Mapping data flows performance and tuning guide.

Payload is too large

Error message: The payload including configurations on activity/dataSet/linked service is too large. Please check if you have settings with very large value and try to reduce its size.

Cause: The payload for each activity run includes the activity configuration, the associated dataset(s), and linked service(s) configurations if any, and a small portion of system properties generated per activity type. The limit of such payload size is 896 KB as mentioned in the Azure limits documentation for Data Factory and Azure Synapse Analytics.

Recommendation: You hit this limit likely because you pass in one or more large parameter values from either upstream activity output or external, especially if you pass actual data across activities in control flow. Check if you can reduce the size of large parameter values, or tune your pipeline logic to avoid passing such values across activities and handle it inside the activity instead.

Unsupported compression causes files to be corrupted

Symptoms: You try to unzip a file that is stored in a blob container. A single copy activity in a pipeline has a source with the compression type set to "deflate64" (or any unsupported type). This activity runs successfully and produces the text file contained in the zip file. However, there is a problem with the text in the file, and this file appears corrupted. When this file is unzipped locally, it is fine.

Cause: Your zip file is compressed by the algorithm of "deflate64", while the internal zip library of Azure Data Factory only supports "deflate". If the zip file is compressed by the Windows system and the overall file size exceeds a certain number, Windows will use "deflate64" by default, which is not supported in Azure Data Factory. On the other hand, if the file size is smaller or you use some third party zip tools that support specifying the compress algorithm, Windows will use "deflate" by default.

Tip

Actually, both Binary format in Azure Data Factory and Synapse Analytics and Delimited text format in Azure Data Factory and Azure Synapse Analytics clearly state that the "deflate64" format is not supported in Azure Data Factory.

Execute Pipeline passes array parameter as string to the child pipeline

Error message: Operation on target ForEach1 failed: The execution of template action 'MainForEach1' failed: the result of the evaluation of 'foreach' expression '@pipeline().parameters.<parameterName>' is of type 'String'. The result must be a valid array.

Cause: Even if in the Execute Pipeline you create the parameter of type array, as shown in the below image, the pipeline will fail.

Screenshot showing the parameters of the Execute Pipeline activity.

This is due to the fact that the payload is passed from the parent pipeline to the child as string. We can see it when we check the input passed to the child pipeline.

Screenshot showing the input type string.

Recommendation: To solve the issue we can leverage the create array function as shown in the below image.

Screenshot showing how to use the create array function.

Then our pipeline will succeed. And we can see in the input box that the parameter passed is an array.

Screenshot showing input type array.
