TASK: Reduce stored payload data for WorkspaceRebaseFailed in database

[ahaeslich]

Context: In a project the WorkspaceRebaseFailed event logged up to ~50MB of data in the payload database column.

As discussed in Slack we want to:

• strip the payload down to only include the event UUIDs where the commands were reapplied f.e.
• maybe we can log the rest instead

Yes this is a critical bug. I just discovered that the starship also suffers from it. During a replay i get:

flow cr:replayAll          
Replaying events for all projections of Content Repository "default" ...
Failed to decode data of event "e9d12a09-16ef-41ae-82b7-b2485e69ee95": Control character error, possibly incorrectly encoded

  Type: InvalidArgumentException
  Code: 1651839461
  File: Packages/Neos/Neos.ContentRepository.Core/Classes/EventStore/EventNormalize
        r.php
  Line: 154

which is meaningless, after improving the error i new that the event 66534, a WorkspaceRebaseFailed could not be deserialized.

After looking into the event, i found that the json string just ends before its closes.
Maybe that happend due ex/importing the stream but still it should not be that big. And the error must be better on replay.

do you need a migration to remove the existing garbage for your existing project?

[ahaeslich]

Nope. No migration needed in this case. And I already cleaned up those events anyway😉
