Configuration

Nebula Version: 2025.10.28-nightly

Operating System: WSL2 – Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS

Installation Method: Docker


Steps to reproduce

  1. Start Nebula via Docker
bash
docker exec -it nebula-docker-compose-console-1 sh
  1. Connect with nebula-console:
nebula-console -u root -p nebula -addr graphd -port 9669
  1. Run the following query:

Create a test space

CREATE SPACE IF NOT EXISTS test(partition_num=1, replica_factor=1, vid_type=FIXED_STRING(8));

Select the space

use test

Run the buggy query:

RETURN ()--() AS p

Expected behaviour

The query should either:

  • return an empty result set, or
  • return a normal query error (syntax/semantic), without dropping the connection.

Actual behaviour

After running RETURN ()--() AS p, nebula-console starts a reconnect loop and fails with connection refused to graphd:9669:

(root@nebula) [(none)]> use test
Execution succeeded (time spent 1.171ms/1.487435ms)
