Hi,
on the documentation for commitSync it says the following about the
CommitFailedException
* @throws org.apache.kafka.clients.consumer.CommitFailedException if the
commit failed and cannot be retried.
* This can only occur if you are using automatic group management with
{@link #subscribe(List)}
1. Can someone explain me what automatic group management means? and if its
just the consumer group, why is that the commit may fail?
2.In a Consumer Group, each consumer has 1 or many partitions assigned
right? So if the consumers are not sharing partitions why is that the
commit may failed and cannot be retried?
3.This also happens in commitAsync right? I don't see it on the
documentation so thats why I am asking.
Thanks,
Franco.
