error getting current plan state params: %v

Error message

error getting current plan state params: %v

What it means

This error is returned by the ApplyPlanHandler in plans_changes.go when db.GetFullCurrentPlanStateParams(auth.OrgId, planId) fails while assembling the plan snapshot inside a read-locked ExecRepoOperation. It wraps the underlying DB error, so the root cause (query failure, missing org/plan rows, connection issue) is in the wrapped %v. The handler converts it into an HTTP 500 'Error getting current plan state'.

Solutions

1. Inspect the wrapped '%v' detail in the server log to find the root DB error
2. Verify the Postgres/DB connection config and that the DB is reachable
3. Confirm the planId exists for the authenticated org before calling apply
4. Retry the request if the failure was a transient connection error

Example fix

// before
currentPlanParams, err = db.GetFullCurrentPlanStateParams(auth.OrgId, planId)
if err != nil {
    return fmt.Errorf("error getting current plan state params: %v", err)
}
// after
currentPlanParams, err = db.GetFullCurrentPlanStateParams(auth.OrgId, planId)
if err != nil {
    if planId == "" {
        return fmt.Errorf("error getting current plan state params: empty planId: %w", err)
    }
    return fmt.Errorf("error getting current plan state params for plan %s: %w", planId, err)
}

if planId == "" {
    return errors.New("planId is required before fetching plan state params")
}
if err := db.PingContext(ctx); err != nil {
    return fmt.Errorf("database unreachable: %w", err)
}

err := db.ExecRepoOperation(params, func(repo *db.GitRepo) error {
    currentPlanParams, err = db.GetFullCurrentPlanStateParams(orgId, planId)
    if err != nil {
        return fmt.Errorf("error getting current plan state params: %w", err)
    }
    return nil
})
if err != nil {
    log.Printf("plan state params load failed: %v", err)
    http.Error(w, "plan state unavailable", http.StatusServiceUnavailable)
    return
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling the apply-plan endpoint when the org/plan lookup inside GetFullCurrentPlanStateParams fails: database unreachable, plan row missing/corrupt, or a SQL error while assembling current plan state params.

Common situations: DB container down or migrated mid-request; planId belonging to another org so the query returns an error; transient connection pool exhaustion under load.
