I believe there were some incompatibilities between 0.8.x and 0.9.x for
the clients.
If you are upgrading from 0.8.x to 0.10.x, you should check out the
upgrade guide available here:
http://kafka.apache.org/documentation.html#upgrade_10

Hello. We are running kafka server 0.8. We are considering upgrading to the
latest version of kafka. Does latest consumer 0.10 backward compatible with
older version of Kafka? What is the right approach of upgrading Kafka
servers and consumers?
Thanks in advance.
