Hi Grant, But then my console producer is not sending any message to the broker. It just prints that warning and keeps waiting.
I have verified that console producer is "not" sending messages by actually running console consumer. And a Java client that sends messages works and the console consumer is able to read them fine. It is just the console producer that doesn't seem to work (or at least as per the quick start link) Sent from my iPhone > On 28-Oct-2015, at 7:34 PM, Grant Henke <ghe...@cloudera.com> wrote: > > Hi Sathya, > > This was a bug that is now fixed in trunk and will be included in the next > release.
