Sax > Assignee: Matthias J. Sax > Priority: Critical > > When a Kafka Streams application gets started for the first time, it can > happen that some topic metadata is missing when > {{StreamPartitionAssigner#assign()}} is called on the group leader instance. > This can result in an infinite loop within > {{StreamPartitionAssigner#assign()}}. This issue was detected by > {{ResetIntegrationTest}} that does have a transient timeout failure (c.f. > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4058 -- this issue was re-opened > multiple times as the problem was expected to be in the test -- however, that > is not the case). -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
