Yes, that is likely the case - if the kafka-server-start.sh you're using is the 'out of the box' version, then you're getting a shell running the java process, and supervisor is likely only seeing the shell. One way to work around this is to change the last line to be:
exec $(dirname $0)/kafka-run-class.sh kafka.Kafka $@ At which the shell process will be replaced with the java process, so signals from supervisor will end up going direct to the java proc. What you may end up with at that point is trying to restart too fast - kafka can take a little bit (generally not more than a few seconds) depending on the workload it is under at the time. -- Dave DeMaagd ddema...@linkedin.com | 818 262 7958 (david.birds...@gmail.com - Mon, Oct 22, 2012 at 10:17:30AM -0700) > Using start scripts with supervisor usually doesn't work.
