Hello, We are trying to make a consumer for kafka, (client code alone and camel integrated) and we ended in a blocking point. Can you please give us an advice, or any other idea?
Our problem: - We create a kafka consumer that connects to a wrong server (wrong ip/port), and the consumer get stuck in "poll" method even the connection is not created. - We tried also with camel, but the same problem (as the same kafka client is called) - It seems that there is a bug in kafka java client that the connection ends up in a loop - For producer everything is fine. Do you have any advice, or can you confirm that there is a bug? Do you plan to fix this? Our production code will be with camel, so there will be needed an exception to be thrown so we can make our data error handling. How can we make the consumer throw exception if the connection to server is not created successfully or the connection is lost at some point? Our environment: Standalone: <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.kafka</groupId> <artifactId>kafka_2.11</artifactId> <version>0.10.0.0</version> </dependency> With camel: <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.camel</groupId> <artifactId>camel-kafka</artifactId> <version>2.17.0.redhat-630187</version> </dependency> The dummy code example is attached. Or camel: //server do not exist from("kafka:10.97.210.222:8093?topic=testTopic_mip133&groupId=testing&autoOffsetReset=earliest&consumersCount=1").process(new Processor( ) { @Override public void process(Exchange exchange) throws Exception { LOG.info(new MsbHeaderImpl(), "Am primit header: " + exchange.getIn().getHeaders()); LOG.info(new MsbHeaderImpl(), "Am primit body: " + exchange.getIn().getBody()); } }); Kafka server version: kafka_2.10-0.10.1.0 Thanks, Vlad Geschaeftsanschrift/Business Address: METRO SYSTEMS GmbH, Metro-Strasse 12, 40235 Duesseldorf, Germany Aufsichtsrat/Supervisory Board: Heiko Hutmacher (Vorsitzender/ Chairman) Geschaeftsfuehrung/Management Board: Dr. Dirk Toepfer (Vorsitzender/CEO), Wim van Herwijnen Sitz Duesseldorf, Amtsgericht Duesseldorf, HRB 18232/Registered Office Duesseldorf, Commercial Register of the Duesseldorf Local Court, HRB 18232 --- Betreffend Mails von *@metrosystems.net Die in dieser E-Mail enthaltenen Nachrichten und Anhaenge sind ausschliesslich fuer den bezeichneten Adressaten bestimmt.
