----------------------------------
Summary: Consumer throwing RecordTooLargeException even when
messages are not that large
Key: KAFKA-4762
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4762
Project: Kafka
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Vipul Singh
We were just recently hit by a weird error.
Before going in any further, explaining of our service setup. we have a
producer which produces messages not larger than 256 kb of messages( we have an
explicit check about this on the producer side) and on the client side we have
a fetch limit of 512mb(max.partition.fetch.bytes is set to 524288 bytes)
Recently our client started to see this error:
{quote}
org.apache.kafka.common.errors.RecordTooLargeException: There are some messages
at [Partition=Offset]: {topic_name-0=9925080405} whose size is larger than the
fetch size 524288 and hence cannot be ever returned. Increase the fetch size,
or decrease the maximum message size the broker will allow.

We tried consuming messages with another consumer, without any
max.partition.fetch.bytes limit, and it consumed fine. The messages were small,
and did not seem to be greater than 256 kb
We took a log dump, and the log size looked fine.
Has anyone seen something similar? or any points to troubleshoot this further
Please Note: To overcome this issue, we deployed a new consumer, without this
limit of max.partition.fetch.bytes, and it worked fine.
