Internal Server Error During Schema Registration

[radhikari-3]

What happened?

I attempted to register a new schema with Karapace using a CURL command. The schema subject is test-key and the schema definition is:

{ "type": "record", "name": "Obj", "fields": [{"name": "age", "type": "int"}] }

The CURL command used for registration is:

curl --location 'https://karapace.banking-ci4.cvp-fabric-experiments.net/subjects/test-key/versions' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/vnd.schemaregistry.v1+json' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic YW1hemluZy1kdWNrbGluZzpTS0lLa2Z1NGFOcUw3MGV6' \
--data '{
  "schema": "{\"type\": \"record\", \"name\": \"Obj\", \"fields\":[{\"name\": \"age\", \"type\": \"int\"}]}"
}'

However, the registration failed with an Internal Server Error message in the Karapace pod logs. The logs indicate a timeout error during message sending.

What did you expect to happen?

I expected the schema to be successfully registered with Karapace and a new schema ID to be returned in the response.

What else do we need to know?

Request for Help:

I would appreciate assistance in diagnosing the cause of the timeout error and fixing the issue with schema registration. Any suggestions or insights into potential configuration problems with Karapace or the MSK integration would be helpful. Let me know if you need any more information regading the setup.

@radhikari-3 seems like there is a timeout in registering the schema, in producing the event to _schemas topic.

May be kafka broker is not accessible ?
