Onur Karaman commented on KAFKA-2231: ------------------------------------- Can you provide the number of partitions for the topic being deleted as well as value of the controller.message.queue.size broker config? Maybe it's related to a controller deadlock described here: [KAFKA-2122|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2122] > Deleting a topic fails > ---------------------- > > Key: KAFKA-2231 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-2231 > Project: Kafka > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 0.8.2.1 > Environment: Windows 8.1 > Reporter: James G.
