Steps to remediate

  • Update the application’s dependency on flink-connector-kinesis. If you are using Maven as your project’s build tool, follow Update a Maven dependency . If you are using Gradle, follow Update a Gradle dependency .

  • Repackage the application.

  • Upload to an Amazon S3 bucket.

  • Resubmit the create / update application request with the revised application just uploaded to the Amazon S3 bucket.

  • If you continue to see the same error message, re-check your application dependencies. If the problem persists please create a support ticket.

Update a Maven dependency

  1. Open the project’s pom.xml.

  2. Find the project’s dependencies. They look like:

    <project>

    ...

    <dependencies>

        ...

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
            <artifactId>flink-connector-kinesis</artifactId>
        </dependency>

        ...

    </dependencies>

    ...

</project>

  3. Update flink-connector-kinesis to a version that is equal to or newer than 1.15.2. For instance:

    <project>

    ...

    <dependencies>

        ...

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.apache.flink</groupId>
            <artifactId>flink-connector-kinesis</artifactId>
            <version>1.15.2</version>
        </dependency>

        ...

    </dependencies>

    ...

</project>

Update a Gradle dependency

  1. Open the project’s build.gradle (or build.gradle.kts for Kotlin applications).

  2. Find the project’s dependencies. They look like:

    ...

dependencies {

    ...

    implementation("org.apache.flink:flink-connector-kinesis")

    ...

}

...

  3. Update flink-connector-kinesis to a version that is equal to or newer than 1.15.2. For instance:

    ...

dependencies {

    ...

    implementation("org.apache.flink:flink-connector-kinesis:1.15.2")

    ...

}
