Apologies for not responding sooner. My mail client must have been malfunctioning at the time as I never saw your responses until today.
As for the error, it looks like it's a bug on my part that just didn't click until I read Jim's responses. I have a config file that I specify the options in and I copied it from a Configuration object to a Properties object, as the producer/consumer requires. Didn't realize until this morning that it was not working as expected. On a different note: does anyone know how to create a namespace in Zookeeper? We're having some issues I'm trying to debug so I want to isolate some of our brokers, but finding documentation on this has been fruitless. Thanks! ________________________________________ From: Neha Narkhede [neha.narkh...@gmail.com] Sent: Thursday, November 29, 2012 4:39 PM To: users@kafka.apache.org Subject: Re: FW: Zookeeper Configuration Question Please can you send around the log that shows the zookeeper connection error ? I would like to see if it fails at connection establishment or session establishment. Thanks, Neha On Thu, Nov 29, 2012 at 1:19 PM, James A.
