I believe bootstrap.servers is mandatory Kafka property, but it looks like you didn’t set it

Thus, I added the following properties. Properties properties = new Properties(); properties.setProperty("request.timeout.ms<http://request.timeout.ms>", "30000"); properties.setProperty("retries", "20"); DataStream<String> stream = env.addSource(new SimpleStringGenerator()); stream.addSink(new FlinkKafkaProducer<>("flink-test", new SimpleStringSchema(), properties)); However, after the job is submitted, the User Configuration is empty, please see attached. Therefore, it seems these properties are taking into effect since I still have the same problem. Any help on these issues are appreciated, thanks.
