> Key: KAFKA-4220
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4220
> Project: Kafka
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Ishita Mandhan
> Assignee: Ishita Mandhan
> Priority: Minor
>
> When the argument provided to a command line statement is not of the right
> type, a stack trace is returned. This can be replaced by a cleaner error
> message that is earlier to read & understand for the user.
> For example-
> bin/kafka-console-consumer.sh --new-consumer --bootstrap-server
> localhost:9092 --topic foo --timeout-ms abc
> 'abc' is an incorrect type for the --timeout-ms parameter, which expects a
> number.
