Your observation is correct. It's a known bug: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-6502
In practice, it should not be a big issue though. - you would only hit this bug if you don't process a "good message" afterwards - even if you hit this bug, you would just skip the message again Thus, the only drawback I see is an additional log message. As long as you don't have many _consecutive_ corrupted messages it should be impact you much. Hope this helps. -Matthias On 9/13/18 6:09 AM, Tim Ward wrote: > With > > > props.put(StreamsConfig.DEFAULT_DESERIALIZATION_EXCEPTION_HANDLER_CLASS_CONFIG, > LogAndContinueExceptionHandler.class); > > Scenario A: > > Run application.
