The Jacobi identity, which is an indispensable property for gauge invariant closed string field theory, is apparently broken in cases where one of the four legs of the identity has vanishing string-length. This phenomenon contradicts the general proof of the identity valid at the critical dimension. We examine the general proof and clarify the mechanism of this Jacobi identity anomaly
