Neha Narkhede created KAFKA-495: ----------------------------------- Summary: Handle topic names with "/" on Kafka server Key: KAFKA-495 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-495 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Neha Narkhede
If a producer publishes data to topic "foo/foo", the Kafka server ends up creating an invalid directory structure on the server. This corrupts the zookeeper data structure for the topic - /brokers/topics/foo/foo. This leads to rebalancing failures on the consumer as well as errors on the zookeeper based producer. We need to harden the invalid topic handling on the Kafka server side to avoid this. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
