Can you double check that you can read data from your Kafka broker ?

> ./deploy/kafka/bin/kafka-topics.sh --describe --zookeeper localhost:2181
--topic myTopic
> ./deploy/kafka/bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --zookeeper localhost:2181
--topic myTopic --from-beginning

I've seen cases where if the Kafka broker isn't shutdown properly,
something like this happens.
