kafka-console-producer does not take in customized values of --batch-size or --timeout --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: KAFKA-279 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-279 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: contrib Affects Versions: 0.7 Environment: Ubuntu 10.04, openjdk1.6 with default installation of 0.7 Reporter: milind parikh Priority: Minor 1. While the default console-producer, console-consumer paradigm works great, when I try modiying the batch size bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --batch-size 300 --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic test1 it gives me a Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NumberFormatException: null at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:443) at java.lang.Integer.parseInt(Integer.java:514) at scala.collection.immutable.StringLike$class.toInt(StringLike.scala:207) at scala.collection.immutable.StringOps.toInt(StringOps.scala:31) at kafka.utils.Utils$.getIntInRange(Utils.scala:189) at kafka.utils.Utils$.getInt(Utils.scala:174) at kafka.producer.async.AsyncProducerConfigShared$class.$init$(AsyncProducerConfig.scala:45) at kafka.producer.ProducerConfig.<init>(ProducerConfig.scala:25) at kafka.producer.ConsoleProducer$.main(ConsoleProducer.scala:108) at kafka.producer.ConsoleProducer.main(ConsoleProducer.scala) I have looked at the code and can't figure out what's wrong 2. When I do bin/kafka-console-producer.sh --timeout 30000 --zookeeper localhost:2181 --topic test1 I would think that console-producer would wait for 30s if the batch size (default 200) is not full. It doesn't. It takes the same time without the timeout parameter (default 1000) and dumps whatever the batch size. Resolution from Jun 1. The code does the following to set batch size props.put("batch.size", batchSize) Instead, it should do props.put("batch.size", batchSize.toString) 2. It sets the wrong property name for timeout. Instead of doing props.put("queue.enqueueTimeout.ms", sendTimeout.toString) it should do props.put("queue.time", sendTimeout.toString) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
