>
> Key: KAFKA-1640
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1640
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: consumer
> Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
> Reporter: chenshangan
> Assignee: Neha Narkhede
>
> I'm running topology on storm which consume messages from kafka. Sometimes I
> encounter exceptions like offset out of range. I did not pay much attention
> on this problem before and just restarted the topology to consume messages
> from latest offset because of various reasons. Recently, more services are
> dependent on kafka, and this problem still exists. According to the invalid
> offset information, I did a test and finally found the problem. There exists
> an offset which consumer can never start from and can not skip over it unless
> you provide next valid offset to start from. I can not figure out why.
