-----------------------------------
Summary: Low traffic consumer is not consuming messages after the
offsets is deleted by Kafka
Key: KAFKA-7095
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7095
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Components: clients
Affects Versions: 0.10.1.1
Reporter: Aldo Sinanaj
Hello guys.
I have a low traffic consumers for a given consumer group and I have the
default broker setting for this property *offsets.retention.minutes*. So if a
messages is coming after 2 days and Kafka has deleted the offset for that given
consumer, then the consumer will not consume the new incoming messages. If I
restart the application it will consume from the earliest which is obvious
since the offset is deleted.
My question is why it doesn't consume the new messages if I don't restart the
application? And how does this version of Kafka understands if a consumer is
active or inactive? Is my consumer considered inactive in this case?
Thanks,
Aldo
