> NPE from the provided metadata in client callback in case of ApiException
> -------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KAFKA-12841
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-12841
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: clients
> Affects Versions: 2.6.0
> Environment: Prod
> Reporter: Avi Youkhananov
> Assignee: Kirk True
> Priority: Major
> Attachments: NPE.production
>
>
> 1.
> org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.Callback interface has method
> onCompletion(...)
> Which says as part of the documentation :
> *The metadata for the record that was sent (i.e. the partition and offset).
> *An empty metadata with -1 value for all fields* except for topicPartition
> will be returned if an error occurred.
> We got an NPE from doSend(...) method in
> org.apache.kafka.clients.producer.KafkaProducer
> Which can occur in case ApiException was thrown ...
> In case of ApiException it uses the regular callback instead of
> InterceptorCallback which also may cover the NPE.
> 2. More over RecordMetadata has method partition() which return int but can
> also throw NPE because TopicPartition might be null.
> Stack trace attached.
