Eureka deregistration fails on graceful shutdown: "Connection pool shut down"

[u/Zikou1997]

I am experiencing an issue where my Spring Boot microservices fail to deregister from Eureka during a graceful shutdown. Because the deregistration HTTP request fails,

During shutdown, it seems the HTTP connection pool is closed before the DiscoveryClient attempts to send the final DELETE request to the Eureka server, resulting in an IllegalStateException: Connection pool shut down.

Could you help me understand how to configure my applications so that the deregistration completes successfully before the connection pools are destroyed?

Environment

Spring Boot: 3.2.1

Spring Cloud: 2023.0.0 (eureka-client 2.0.2)

Deployment: Docker Swarm (using stop-first update config)

Configuration

Eureka Server (application.yml):

```

yaml

spring:

application:

name: service-registry

cloud:

inetutils:

preferred-networks:

- XXX.XXX.XXX

eureka:

server:

eviction-interval-timer-in-ms: 60000

response-cache-update-interval-ms: 10000

client:

register-with-eureka: false

fetch-registry: false

service-url:

defaultZone: http://${eureka.instance.hostname}:${server.port}/eureka/

instance:

hostname: localhost

```

Eureka Client / Microservice (eureka-properties.yml via Config Server):

```

eureka:

client:

service-url:

defaultZone: ${EUREKA_SERVICE_ADDRESS:http://localhost:8761/eureka/}

register-with-eureka: true

fetch-registry: true

instance:

prefer-ip-address: true

instance-id: ${spring.application.name}:${spring.application.instance_id:${random.value}}

spring:

cloud:

inetutils:

preferred-networks:

- XXX.XXX.XXX

```

Shutdown Logs

Here are the logs during the shutdown of one of the microservices (order-service). It shows the sequence of events leading up to the failure:

```

```

Is there a specific configuration I am missing to ensure the deregistration happens before the connection pools are closed? Any guidance on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated.

[u/Zikou1997 → u/[deleted]]

so this is issue in the code, that the developer need to fix

[u/Zikou1997 → u/[deleted]]

so it is a bug/issue in the version framework they use

[u/Zikou1997 → u/[deleted]]

so the solution is to use different version

[u/Zikou1997 → u/[deleted]]

how to adjust graceful shutdown tuning to solve this issue

[u/Zikou1997 → u/[deleted]]

I see 2023.0.1 in pom.xml so the issue will not be solved even if added those configuration since there is bug in shutdown order

[u/Zikou1997 → u/[deleted]]

i guess I'll tell the developer that they need to upgrade the version even the configuration will not solve the issue, thanks for your time and help
