I’m having trouble finding that version, is it located in a separate repository?

Thanks,
Nick

Nick,

I suspect you might be hitting a bug in 1.0.2 that might be fixed in one of the 
next releases.

Can you try setting the version of storm-kafka-client to 1.1.0-SNAPSHOT (leave 
other storm components at 1.0.2)?

If that fixes the issue, let us know on 
dev@storm.apache.org<mailto:dev@storm.apache.org> so we can back port the fix.

Hello,

We are working with storm 1.0.2 and using Kafka client to subscribe to kafka 
topics to retrieve data.  Randomly when our topologies are starting up we 
receive a null pointer exception which is killing the topology.  We can’t seem 
to identify why this happens, or what measures we can take to prevent it.  I’m 
considering raising a ticket with storm to check for null to prevent the 
topology from crashing.

The method and line number in question below:

@Override
    public void ack(Object messageId) {
        final KafkaSpoutMessageId msgId = (KafkaSpoutMessageId) messageId;
        if (!consumerAutoCommitMode) {  // Only need to keep track of acked 
tuples if commits are not done automatically
            acked.get(msgId.getTopicPartition()).add(msgId);
        }
        emitted.remove(msgId);
}

Restarting the topology sometimes fixes the issue but sometimes does not.  I 
don’t know if there’s some kind of race condition occurring.  We have about 15 
topologies all connecting to kafka the same way, and this doesn’t happen 
consistently between them.

Does anyone have any insight as to why this occurs or how to prevent it on our 
end?
