             Summary: consumer will fail if encounter special offset
                 Key: KAFKA-1640
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1640
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: consumer
    Affects Versions: 0.8.1.1
            Reporter: chenshangan
            Assignee: Neha Narkhede


I'm running topology on storm which consume messages from kafka. Sometimes I 
encounter exceptions like offset out of range.  I did not pay much attention on 
this problem before and just restarted the topology to consume messages from 
latest offset because of various reasons. Recently, more services are dependent 
on kafka, and this problem still exists.  According to the invalid offset 
information, I did a test and finally found the problem. There exists an offset 
which consumer can never start from and can not skip over it unless you provide 
next valid offset to start from.  I can not figure out why.
