Trying to track redshift Assert error

5

Since today we are having this error, the DBT/SQL was not touched I'm receiving errors in many processes with this same message. A full refresh on DBT clears it, but when the first incremental runs, it starts to fail again with the same error, "context" is not helping. I ran the query manually and had no trouble at all. It's a query that creates a table, a delete on the destination table (with a where), and inserts into it (managed by DBT that wasn't modified for more than 6 months, the query runs daily and also wasn't changed on the last months). The only thing that I think changed was the Redshift version via an auto-maintenance yesterday, but can't do a rollback to validate, or can I? I was in "current" version on maintenance, just switched to "trailing", now I'm on 1.0.38361, and can't find the changelog for that version.

Completed with 1 error and 0 warnings:

Done. PASS=0 WARN=0 ERROR=1 SKIP=0 TOTAL=1

Any idea of what can be happening?

Thanks!

Ok, it's a Redshift issue rollbacked to 1.0.38094 and everything works again

Just replying to this to make sure it gets visibility from the Redshift dev team - we had a similar Assert error cropping up on queries that previously ran flawlessly, and rolling back to 1.0.38094 fixed the issue for us.

  • I accidentally let our cluster update to latest, and the assert error returned, I've reworked my query slightly, and seem to have it working now. I think the change that got it back was removing a ROUND (possibly a ROUND interacting with a LEAST).
