Alex Glikson created KAFKA-4095: ----------------------------------- Summary: When a topic is deleted and then created with the same name, 'committed' offsets are not reset Key: KAFKA-4095 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4095 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: consumer Affects Versions: 0.10.0.0, 0.9.0.1 Reporter: Alex Glikson
I encountered a very strange behavior of Kafka, which seems to be a bug. After deleting a topic and re-creating it with the same name, I produced certain amount of new messages, and then opened a consumer with the same ID that I used before re-creating the topic (with auto.commit=false, auto.offset.reset=earliest). While the latest offsets seemed up to date, the *committed* offset (returned by committed() method) was an *old* offset, from the time before the topic has been deleted and created. I would have assumed that when a topic is deleted, all the associated topic-partitions and consumer groups are recycled too. I am using the Java client version 0.9, with Kafka server 0.10. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
