Issue with Orchestrator Pod in Airbyte on Kubernetes

Summary

User encountered an issue with the Airbyte orchestrator pod failing to start during sync, resolved by disabling the container orchestrator. Seeking insights on the robustness of this solution and potential risks.


Question

Hi everyone,
I have been facing this issue for a while now and it is solved but not sure how robust the solution is.
message='io.temporal.serviceclient.CheckedExceptionWrapper: io.airbyte.workers.exception.WorkerException: Running the launcher replication-orchestrator failed', type='java.lang.RuntimeException', nonRetryable=false
what worked for me was to set CONTAINER_ORCHESTRATOR_ENABLED to False.
While troubleshooting, I could see that the temporal pod is running fine but is unable to start the orchestrator pod when I trigger a sync. and also saw 2 orchestrators with state “error”

Did anyone face the same issue and solved it permanently in a better way? Or does anyone know if there are any risks with disabling the container orchestrator?
I am running the latest version of airbyte v0.50.43 on k8s
