ASF GitHub Bot commented on STORM-512: -------------------------------------- Github user miguno commented on the pull request: https://github.com/apache/storm/pull/275#issuecomment-93690832 Since KafkaBolt is extending BaseRichBolt, I think we should perform a `collector.ack(input)` before `return`. Tick tuples must be acked like "normal" tuples. ``` public class KafkaBolt<K, V> extends BaseRichBolt { public void execute(Tuple input) { if (TupleUtils.isTick(input)) { return; // Do not try to send ticks to Kafka } ... } ``` > KafkaBolt doesn't handle ticks properly > --------------------------------------- > > Key: STORM-512 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/STORM-512 > Project: Apache Storm > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Niels Basjes > Assignee: Niels Basjes > Fix For: 0.11.0 > > > I found that when using the KafkaBolt the tick tuples are not handled > properly. They should be ignored and the reality is that they are not. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
