"Metadata version not found for workspace" after moving my workspace/database to a new environment.
A few weeks ago i migrated old workspace data to a new database with a new workspace because our metadata was "broken" on the old workspace. The migration was done by manually copying the data from old database to new database by hand. The migration went well and even checked with @Prastoinif everything was working. This migration was done locally on my laptop and worked perfectly, than we migrated the database data to our server by making a psql dump on my laptop and restoring on the server. The docker setup is exactly the same on both my local laptop and server.
But now i am getting these
Metadata version not found for workspace errors.
I used the commands yarn command:prod workspace:sync-metadata and yarn command:prod cache:flush in both my twenty-server and twenty-worker docker.
It fixes the errors for about 2 days and than i get the error again. I have not restarted the dockers.

Hey @Caspersonn, on what Twenty's version are you exactly please ?
That's weird because this is a cache warmup issue, this should be fixed by the
cache:flush/sync-metadata commandHey @Prastoin. We are currently using version v0.51.13 and double checked in the
core.workspace.The issue would rather come from your Redis instance rather than the database
double checked in the core.workspace.I assume workspaceId does exist in your db
Yes i know. I ran this command
redis-cli --scan --pattern '*' in my redis container to check if the keys are there. And it is there.
Is that all ? we should have an
engine:workspace:metadata:workspace-metadata-version:$workspaceId
We're gonna run a command that programmatically sets the increment metadata version, but this is buggy
About to share a command that does the job in 0.51.12Okay, thanks!
My bad it's already in there, 3th from the end
On what kind of operation does this error occur ?
When the users want to login.
Then they get either a
Authentication failed error or metadata version not found for workspaceOops removed the message, these are the keys in the redis cache.
Could read the
"engine:workspace:metadata:workspace-metadata-version:d7858828-5f20-430a-ab76-e7555779126a" value ?Sorry, what do you exactly mean?
See what value is actually stored in cache
Should be a number
Ooh yes, i am not a redis expert what command should i run?
If it's 0 JavaScript might not like it 🙂
Something like
GET key from your redis connectionIt's not 0...
Does this fit your in-database
core.workspace.metadataVersion value ?Jep
Are we sure your
twenty-server instance is correctly connected to your redis instance ?
Problem does not seem to come from redis instance itself maybe a networking issue
Maybe the server is just not able to hit or is not hitting the correct redis instance 🤔
Created this https://github.com/twentyhq/twenty/pull/11829 just for the sake of the potential 0 version value
Coucou@Weiko ! Would you mind giving this thread and PR a look when you have some free time pleaseThe redis port is forwarded, there is only running 1 redis instance in that specific server.
So i don't think it's a network issue
I'm not aware of any fixes after
0.51.12 about such a behavior, but I would prefer upgrading to latest 0.51 patch in the first place than to the 0.52.5 if you're willing to give it a try
I can't find any occurrences in our cloud env neitherHmhmhm, the latest patch of 0.51 is v0.51.14 and we are running v0.51.13. I was to planning to upgrade in the next week to v0.52.5.
But our twenty instance has to be restarted if i upgrade to the latest patch and that is not really possible right now...
Are there any big changes in the next v0.52 version?
No worries that's ok
No huge feature, but fixes and quality enhancement
Could you confirm that the metadata version not found error occurs each time you wanna access to twenty or only once ? -> Are you able to access your twenty's instance ?
Okay. Il explain, we cannot login in to the twenty instance until i run the commands
yarn command:prod workspace:sync-metadata and yarn command:prod cache:flush. It just gives a authentication error if i try over and over again. And as i said i can access the twenty instance after running the commands. To clarify with accessing i mean logging in.Getting the error once after a cache flush is "normal"
It will warmup the cache and retrying will succeed, normally even without a
sync-metadata. If not it means your workspace needed to get synched
We don't prevent such a use case as we prefer a single fail rather then several cache write at the same timeOkay, thanks for explaining.
What's the best thing to do right now?
From my understanding you should not have the error anymore ?
Jep, you are right. But it comes back after a couple of days, so that's the weird thing.
Do you have any custom eviction policy on your redis instance ?
Nope. It's the default redis instance from the docker.
Mhhm that's indeed weird
Is it like after a weekend ? I'm trying to find a link between traffic and cache hydration
Will need to investigate further
It's between 48 and 72 hours.
Than the error is back
@Prastoin Maybe we could call, next week or so?
I'm not sure that planning a call would be the most worth it for both of us, about to dig deeper regarding our cache eviction management might not be the most suitable policy. I would think of it to be
noevictionYeah fair, and goodluck. 🙃
@Caspersonn for some reason your redis instance may have to apply its default eviction policy, which seems to currently be
volatile-lru( I've just changed in abc05fafd7757d )
What I would do is track your redis used_memory over maxmemory ( or check history not sure if such a thing exists natively in redis )Okay. I have applied your new redis config and it seems to work for now. Il keep track of the memory and keep you up to date 🙃
Sounds great, do not hesitate reaching out if you encounter any troubles
Please be aware that if it was the issue, it means you should upgrade your redis container to have more cpu
If not with the noEviction rule, you might encounter cache write runtime errors
