Hi there, I am using kafka 0.8 (currently 0.8.0-beta1-candidate1) and I want my consumer to fail if it can not reliably find out the last consumed offset from zookeeper.
According to https://kafka.apache.org/08/configuration.html for "https://kafka.apache.org/08/configuration.html" > What to do when there is no initial offset in Zookeeper or if an offset is > out of range: .. >* anything else: throw exception to the consumer But it looks like the exception is always thrown, not only when there is no initial offset found in Zookeper. It;s being validated at startup... Is there a workaround to fail only if no offset is found in zk? Regards, Martin
