Datastore 503 error "connect failed"

[dskdas]

With the latest 1.1.0 version datastore save returns an 503 error "connect failed"

Downgrading to grpc 1.0.1 in my project seems to fix the issue.

grpc/grpc#9518

Environment details

• OS: ubuntu / appengine nodejs
• Node.js version: 6.9.4
• npm version: 3.10.10
• google-cloud-node version:
  "@google-cloud/datastore": "^0.6.1",
  "@google-cloud/storage": "^0.6.1",

Steps to reproduce

datastore save method returns error

[stephenplusplus]

I haven't reproduced the 503, however, I noticed the request hanging in 1.1.0 and coming back instantly in 1.0.1.

To anyone affected by this, npm install google-cloud and access your sub-services through there.

@murgatroid99 -- any ideas what could have caused this? Currently, it looks like we'd have to roll back and force 1.0.1.

Here's repro code:

$ npm init -y
$ npm install --save @google-cloud/datastore
$ touch index.js

'use strict'

var datastore = require('@google-cloud/datastore')({
  projectId: 'nth-circlet-705'
})

datastore.save({
  key: datastore.key(['Kind', 1]),
  data: { test: true }
}, console.log) // never called in grpc@1.1.0

@dskdas thank you for analyzing and reporting this problem. I can confirm that I have the same problem and solution.

I have a question for the developers/maintainers; I have noticed that shrinkwrap is being used for the main google-cloud package, but not for the @Google-Cloud packages. Is there a specific reason for this? These kind of problems can be prevented if the @Google-Cloud packages are also shrinkwrapped.

[stephenplusplus]

We shrinkwrap the bundled package so that we can minimize duplicated dependencies for users of non-dedupe-ing npm versions (pre npm@3.0). We'd like to not have to shrinkwrap at all, however, it's clear it would have prevented this situation we're in now. The cost is delayed bug fixes from our dependencies and a more complicated release process, which means a slower delivery to the end user. This type of issue is rare, and can be addressed in a short matter of time by us. And users can fix by downgrading or following other specific advice that we share here.

I don't want to squash the idea, but I would prefer we have it in another issue so we can keep this clear for users who might hit the same bug and benefit from related advice. If anyone feels strongly about it, please open a new issue.

[murgatroid99]

I can reproduce this problem. The root cause is a TCP connection failure, though I can't tell yet why it's happening.

[murgatroid99]

I have tracked down the issue, and I will publish grpc@1.1.1 as soon as our tests pass and we can build the new packages.

[mdebruijne]

@stephenplusplus I had a problem in the past with the main google-cloud package due to a bug in node-forge that was resolved upstream but still shrinkwrapped in google-cloud so I would prefer no shrinkwrap as well. I was just wondering if the decision to differentiate between the main google-cloud package and @Google-Cloud packages was taken deliberately. Thanks for clearing that up.

[stephenplusplus]

Gotcha, it's only because google-cloud wraps so many modules, and they all share so many common dependencies. npm install google-cloud was downloading 800MB+ :(

I have encountered what I think is a related error when deploying to Heroku. It has killed my build & deploy process.

@dzoba grpc-0.14.1 is way too old. I believe your project is using some older version of @google-cloud/compute -- consider upgrade it to the latest release.

Our v1.1.x branch now contains the fix to the bug, and the package will be published shortly (probably later today, definitely by early tomorrow). I have verified that it works with the provided reproduction case, but it would be very helpful if you guys could verify that it works more generally.
