Hi all, yesterday I installed Kafka 2.0 in my Ubuntu 18.04.01 Server Edition and followed the QuickStart instructions and explanations till successfully deploying the Step 7 : https://kafka.apache.org/quickstart
Today I discovered that there are no kafka-logs- files in /tmp , despite being directly explicitated in the related server.properties files: server.properties : # A comma separated list of directories under which to store log files log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs # The minimum age of a log file to be eligible for deletion due to age log.retention.hours=168 server-1.properties : # A comma separated list of directories under which to store log files log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs-1 # The minimum age of a log file to be eligible for deletion due to age log.retention.hours=168 server-2.properties : # A comma separated list of directories under which to store log files log.dirs=/tmp/kafka-logs-2 # The minimum age of a log file to be eligible for deletion due to age log.retention.hours=168 Why did it happen, despite of the successfull follow-up of the first seven steps of the QuickStart tutorial? And what to do in order to keep the Kafka Log files, which contain the messages sent between the producers and the receivers though the Kafka brokerage? Looking forward to your kind help. Marco
