Marco Lotz commented on KAFKA-9527:
-----------------------------------
[~jeqo] Understood. About returning the latest offset - if we perform no
.seek() operation on empty partitions, the consumer offset will be handled by
"auto.offset.reset" configuration - and thus by default return latest.
Should I rely on this configuration or you rather have an explicit
client.seekToEnd() call?
Since the reporter is currently inactive and is an old ticket, I am taking it
over and will forward a PR in a bit.

> Affects Versions: 2.3.0
> Reporter: jbfletch
> Assignee: jbfletch
> Priority: Minor

> When running the streams application reset tool with --by-duration or
> --to-datetime if any partitions for a given input topic are empty a NPE is
> thrown. I tested this with a topic with 3 partitions, I received a NPE until
> all 3 partitions had at least one message. The behavior was the same for
> both --to-datetime and --by-duration.
