Jeremy A Laycock commented on KAFKA-1426: ----------------------------------------- I know that - in this case the consumer hasn't died. I spotted it by simply starting 2 console consumers against the same group (and topic though i don't think that matters), looking at the path in zk only the latest consumer is registered. > Rebalance issue on 0.8.1 > ------------------------ > > Key: KAFKA-1426 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-1426 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Components: consumer > Affects Versions: 0.8.1 > Reporter: Jeremy A Laycock > Assignee: Neha Narkhede > Priority: Minor > > When running up 2 console consumers reading from the same group the zookeeper > path /consumers/<my_group>/ids only contains the latest consumer id - then > re-balance fails. > Looking at the rebalance code the only deletion is the > /consumers/<my_group>/owners/<topic>/<partitions> for each partition a > consumer "owns" -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
