Robert Metzger created FLINK-3061: ------------------------------------- Summary: Kafka Consumer is not failing if broker is not available Key: FLINK-3061 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-3061 Project: Flink Issue Type: Bug Components: Kafka Connector Reporter: Robert Metzger Assignee: Robert Metzger Fix For: 1.0.0
It seems that the FlinkKafkaConsumer is just logging the errors when trying to get the initial list of partitions for the topic, but its not failing. The following code ALWAYS runs, even if there is no broker or zookeeper running. {code} def main(args: Array[String]) { val env = StreamExecutionEnvironment.getExecutionEnvironment val properties = new Properties() properties.setProperty("bootstrap.servers", "localhost:9092") properties.setProperty("zookeeper.connect", "localhost:2181") properties.setProperty("group.id", "test") val stream = env .addSource(new FlinkKafkaConsumer082[String]("topic", new SimpleStringSchema(), properties)) .print env.execute("Flink Kafka Example") } {code} The runtime consumers are designed to idle when they have no partitions assigned, but there is no check that there are no partitions at all. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
