Hey Justin, I am running in the same issues as you mentioned in this old thread <https://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/mesos-user/201604.mbox/%[email protected]%3E>, did you resolve it?
I see that kafka framework sends a POST request to register itself but mesos master logs does not even show that the request was received, packet capture does. My guess was that something is wrong in HTTP request but doing this same thing on local setup works fine so that can't be the case. I can capture the requests on the master node so there's no network issues either, just like in your case. I also verified that two machines can communicate on using netcat as well. Like you mentioned in your thread, once it registered with mesos but that was the only time that happened, the brokers did not start even then - "start" timed out. ^that behavior hints at possible bug in mesos, where it sits on this request for too long and some times under some conditions, it gets through, that's when it works. PS I have network capture showing POST from framework to master, if anyone wants to take a look at it. -- Vinit
