John Wilkinson created KAFKA-7314: ------------------------------------- Summary: MirrorMaker example in documentation does not work Key: KAFKA-7314 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7314 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Reporter: John Wilkinson
Kafka MirrorMaker as described in the documentation [here|https://kafka.apache.org/documentation/#basic_ops_mirror_maker] does not work. Instead of pulling messages from the consumer-defined {{bootstrap.servers}} and pushing to the producer-defined {{bootstrap.servers}}, it consumes and producers on the same topic on the same host repeatedly. To replicate, set up two instances of kafka following [this|https://docs.confluent.io/current/installation/docker/docs/installation/recipes/single-node-client.html] guide. The schema registry and rest proxy are unnecessary. [Here|https://hub.docker.com/r/confluentinc/cp-kafka/] is the DockerHub page for the image. The Kafka version is 2.1.0. Using those two kafka instances, go {{docker exec}} into one and set up the {{consumer.properties}} and the {{producer.properties}} following the MirrorMaker guide. Oddly, if you put in garbage unresolvable server addresses in the config, there will be an error, despite the configs not getting used. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
