Circular reference detected for service cache.bootstrap

I already checked this issue https://www.drupal.org/project/lightning_workflow/issues/3457016 🐛 Circular reference detected for service "cache.backend.database". Active but in our case, we are not using this module and hence this issue looks like a regression due to some other module.

This looks like https://drupal.stackexchange.com/questions/320037/servicecircularreferen...

Can we have the list of modules installed and patches applied? Perhaps the complete composer.json would help.

Sure, here is the composer.json file -

What does the service definition for cache.backend.database in core/core.services.yml look like in that codebase?

Are there any non-default cache bins or cache configurations on the site?

cache.backend.database:
class: Drupal\Core\Cache\DatabaseBackendFactory
arguments: ['@database', '@cache_tags.invalidator.checksum', '@settings']
tags:
- { name: backend_overridable }

Yes, we have cache bins on the site.

Ok, what are the complete cache configurations? Are settings or modules overriding core services?

This is the cache bin that we have created in one of our module -

nr_core.nr_cache:
class: Drupal\Core\Cache\CacheBackendInterface
factory: ['@cache_factory', 'get']
arguments: ['nr_cache']
tags:
- { name: cache.bin }

Also, I am using pantehon setup.

The reason this happens in 10.3 is probably https://www.drupal.org/node/3177901 → . I think you have something overriding cache.backend.database so that it depends on Drupal\Component\Datetime\TimeInterface and state.

So there is also custom code? What exactly do you mean by Pantheon setup?

I wish the circular dependency exception were more verbose. Some techniques you could try:

• Disable modules that modify default caching.
• Disable default cache overrides in settings.php or services.yml.

I am postponing this issue until all information required to reproduce the bug is available.

I found the issue, we were using time in our code which was causing the bug.

  nr_core.datetime.time:
    public: false
    class: 'Drupal\nr_core\Time'
    decorates: datetime.time
    arguments:
      - '@request_stack'
      - '@state'
    # Workaround for serializing decorated services. Remove when either
    # https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/2896993 or
    # https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/2531564 are fixed.
    properties:
      _serviceId: datetime.time

Tried removing this dependency of - '@state' from here and it worked fine. Thanks

I found that if I Remove this patch from Composer.json

"drupal/calendar": {
"#3396700: Creation of dynamic properties is deprecated": " https://www.drupal.org/files/issues/2023-10-26/calendar-dynamic-properti... → "
}

The error goes away.
