Couchbase sometimes fails rename on startup.

[mikereiche]

This will retry the rename after sleeping for 10 seconds up to 6 times.

Closes #6938.

Any updates on this?

This looks very similar to the issue addressed in testcontainers-dotnet: testcontainers/testcontainers-dotnet#1062

Hi, is the Couchbase nature to take that long to perform that operation? Sorry, but I think I am missing something regarding to the context where it fails. It could be not enough resources when parallelizing tests?

Other alternative:

• Is there a config file that can be copied to the container and perform all those operations at once?

Although, it could be the only way to fix it I kind of disagree with the solution given that the worst case scenario is 60 seconds, which will not provide a good experience to users. My understanding is that proposal has been done because it is actually possible but still could fail.

I would like to understand more about it and hear other alternatives if any.

could it be that those operations are executed when the container is starting and should be when the container is started instead?

Hello everyone, @eddumelendez coming back to this a bit late, but yes most setup operations are asynchronous, must be done in order, so we have to wait, and have no other way right now.
The other solutions would be to provide a pre-configured. But it's less flexible and not necessary what users want to test.

Hi, any updates on that. The issue still happened frequently, any workaround except just waiting for a certain time?

[mikereiche]

The pull-request for fixing it it (retry up to one minute) is waiting for approval.

@eddumelendez maybe take another look?

Although, it could be the only way to fix it I kind of disagree with the solution given that the worst case scenario is 60 seconds, which will not provide a good experience to users.

That is better than flaky failing in tests for user experience I think, or has to retry on user code level.
