             Summary: NewProducer NullPointerException on ProduceRequest
                 Key: KAFKA-3657
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-3657
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: network, producer 
    Affects Versions: 0.8.2.1
         Environment: linux 3.2.0 debian7
            Reporter: Vamsi Subhash Achanta
            Assignee: Jun Rao


The producer upon send.get() on the future appends to the accumulator the 
record batches and the Sender.java (separate thread) flushes it to the server. 
The produce request waits on the countDownLatch in the FutureRecordMetadata:
    public RecordMetadata get() throws InterruptedException, ExecutionException 
{
        this.result.await();

In this case, the client thread is blocked for ever (as it is get() without 
timeout) for the response and the response upon poll by the Sender returns an 
attachment with the batch value as null. The batch is processed and the request 
is errored out. The Sender catches a global level exception and then goes 
ahead. As the accumulator is drained, the response will never be returned and 
the producer client thread calling get() is blocked for ever on the latch await 
call.

I checked at the server end but still haven't found the reason for null batch. 
Any pointers on this?
