gRPC 2 UNKNOWN vs 15 DATA_LOSS
Both gRPC 2 (UNKNOWN) and 15 (DATA_LOSS) belong to the gRPC Status Codes category. 2 indicates that an unknown error occurred. This may be returned when a server raises an exception that doesn't map to any known gRPC status code. Meanwhile, 15 means that unrecoverable data loss or corruption has occurred.
Description
An unknown error occurred. This may be returned when a server raises an exception that doesn't map to any known gRPC status code.
Quand vous le voyez
The server threw an unhandled exception or returned an error that gRPC couldn't classify into a more specific status code.
Comment résoudre
Check the server logs for the underlying exception. Wrap server-side errors with explicit gRPC status codes instead of letting them bubble up as UNKNOWN.
Description
Unrecoverable data loss or corruption has occurred.
Quand vous le voyez
Critical data was lost or corrupted — for example, a checksum mismatch during transmission or an unrecoverable storage failure on the server.
Comment résoudre
Investigate the data integrity failure immediately. Restore from backups if available, and check for hardware failures or network corruption in the data path.
