Spring Boot 3, micrometer tracing duplicated traceIds

324 views Asked by At

I have a minimal Spring Boot webflux application with tracing: Demo2Application class:

import org.apache.commons.logging.Log;
import org.apache.commons.logging.LogFactory;
import org.springframework.boot.SpringApplication;
import org.springframework.boot.autoconfigure.SpringBootApplication;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RequestMapping;
import org.springframework.web.bind.annotation.RestController;
import reactor.core.publisher.Hooks;
import reactor.core.publisher.Mono;

@RestController
@SpringBootApplication
public class Demo2Application {

    private static final Log logger = LogFactory.getLog(Demo2Application.class);

    @RequestMapping("/")
    Mono<String> home() {
        logger.info("home() has been called");
        return Mono.just("Hello World!");
    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Hooks.enableAutomaticContextPropagation();
        SpringApplication.run(Demo2Application.class, args);
    }
}

pom.xml file:

application.properties file:

management.tracing.sampling.probability=1.0
logging.pattern.level=%5p [${spring.application.name:},%X{traceId:-},%X{spanId:-}]

The issue that I am having is that after calling endpoint http://localhost:8080/ several times, in logs I can see duplicated trace ids for some of the requests. As far as I know, for every request a new trace id should be generated but it is not the case. Here is a screenshot with output where I highlighted duplicated trace ids: enter image description here

I tried looking online for a reason why that happens but I didnt find an answer. Can someone explain this to me?
