Andrew Olson commented on KAFKA-1179: ------------------------------------- Using the Java API, calling createMessageStreams(...) multiple times using the same consumer connector instance appears to cause the consumer to hang in registerConsumerInZK(...), since a fresh timestamp value is generated for the consumer subscription. At a minimum, it should be clearly documented that this is not valid usage of the API. The following messages are continually logged. {code} kafka.utils.ZkUtils$ - I wrote this conflicted ephemeral node [{"version":1,"subscription":{"topic":1},"pattern":"static","timestamp":"1396019252998"}] at /consumers/test/ids/test_MAC-AO6517-1396019241689-631e0040 a while back in a different session, hence I will backoff for this node to be deleted by Zookeeper and retry 2014-03-28 10:08:39,086 [main] INFO kafka.utils.ZkUtils$ - conflict in /consumers/test/ids/test_MAC-AO6517-1396019241689-631e0040 data: {"version":1,"subscription":{"topic":1},"pattern":"static","timestamp":"1396019252998"} stored data: {"version":1,"subscription":{"topic":1},"pattern":"static","timestamp":"1396019241812"} {code} We're using version 0.8.1. > createMessageStreams() in javaapi.ZookeeperConsumerConnector does not throw > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-1179 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1179 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: consumer > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Vincent Rischmann > Assignee: Neha Narkhede > > In kafka.consumer.javaapi.ZookeeperConsumerConnector.scala, the > createMessageStreams() directly calls underlying.consume() (line 80) > In kafka.consumer.ZookeeperConsumerConnector.scala, the > createMessageStreams() throws an exception if it has been called more than > once (line 133). > The javaapi should throw if it is called more than once, just like the scala > api. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
