Troubleshooting
Workflow Deployment Error
If there were any errors during the workflow deployment process, the Ingestion Pipeline Entity will still be created, but no workflow will be present in the Ingestion container.- You can then Edit the Ingestion Pipeline and Deploy it again.
- From the Connection tab, you can also Edit the Service if needed.
Connector Debug Troubleshooting
This section provides instructions to help resolve common issues encountered during connector setup and metadata ingestion in OpenMetadata. Below are some of the most frequently observed troubleshooting scenarios.How to Enable Debug Logging for Any Ingestion
To enable debug logging for any ingestion workflow in OpenMetadata:- Navigate to Services Go to Settings > Services > Service Type (e.g., Database) in the OpenMetadata UI.
- Select a Service Choose the specific service for which you want to enable debug logging.
- Access Ingestion Tab Go to the Ingestion tab and click the three-dot menu on the right-hand side of the ingestion type, and select Edit.
- Enable Debug Logging In the configuration dialog, enable the Debug Log option and click Next.
- Schedule and Submit Configure the schedule if needed and click Submit to apply the changes.
Permission Issues
If you encounter permission-related errors during connector setup or metadata ingestion, ensure that all the prerequisites and access configurations specified for each connector are properly implemented. Refer to the connector-specific documentation to verify the required permissions.QuestDB-Specific Issues
Connection Refused on Default Port
QuestDB listens on port 8812 for the PostgreSQL wire protocol - not the standard PostgreSQL port 5432. Ensure yourhostPort is set to <host>:8812 and that the port is reachable from the ingestion host.
Schema Filter Not Supported
QuestDB operates as a single-database (qdb), single-schema (public) system. Schema filtering is not applicable - all tables reside in the public schema and will be ingested automatically. You can use tableFilterPattern to restrict which tables are included.
