Hi community,

I'm here to report this error message that is continuos logged for the Kogito operator when it's installed on Openshift 4, this is the error message:

Full log:

kogito-operator-controller-manager-84f9d8c74b-sbg76-manager.log

It makes the operator lose focus on reconciliation, it doesn't interact in front of new CRs. Is there a workaround?

The list of versions used:

• Openshift 4.7.38
• Kubernetes v1.20.11+aa025a0
• Kogito Operator 1.13.0
• Infinispan Operator 2.2.1
• Strimzi 0.26.0

@caiomedeirospinto Thanks for reporting this. I have created a JIRA to address this issue - https://issues.redhat.com/browse/KOGITO-6414 A workaround would be to remove KafkaTopic with config section containing non string values, or use string based config values.

@caiomedeirospinto The operator fix should be available in version 1.15

Fixed in 1.15
