Package: python-zookeeper Version: 3.3.5+dfsg1-2 Severity: normal There appears to be a problem with python-zookeeper's handling of nodes with that have a total path length that is greater than 255 characters. It can be demonstrated with this simple test program, which creates a node with path length of 302 characters. The return value from zookeeper.create should be exactly the same, in this case, but instead, it is trucated at 255 characters:
============================================================================== #!/usr/bin/python import zookeeper ZOO_OPEN_ACL_UNSAFE = {"perms":0x1f, "scheme":"world", "id" :"anyone"} path = "/" + "x" * 300 + "X" servers="127.0.0.1:2181" zh = zookeeper.init(servers) znode = zookeeper.create(zh,path, 'test', [ZOO_OPEN_ACL_UNSAFE], 0) print path print znode zookeeper.delete(zh, znode) ============================================================================== # ./ztest.py /xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxX /xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Traceback (most recent call last): File "./ztest.py", line 20, in <module> zookeeper.delete(zh, lockfile) zookeeper.NoNodeException: no node Checking in the Zookeeper cli confirms that the node is created successfully, and it's only the name returned from zookeeper.create that is truncated. I cannot find any information on what the maximum allowed path length is, for Zookeeper, but this doesn't really matter, because if paths longer than 256 characters aren't allowed, then it should be throwing an exception at create time. I have also checked that it's not just the node-name length that is the problem - it's definitely the total length of the path.
