Pranav Nakhe created KAFKA-4547: ----------------------------------- Summary: Consumer.position returns incorrect results for Kafka 0.10.1.0 client Key: KAFKA-4547 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-4547 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: clients Affects Versions: 0.10.1.0 Environment: Windows Kafka 0.10.1.0 Reporter: Pranav Nakhe
Consider the following code - KafkaConsumer<String, String> consumer = new KafkaConsumer<String, String>(props); List<TopicPartition> listOfPartitions = new ArrayList(); for (int i = 0; i < consumer.partitionsFor("IssueTopic").size(); i++) { listOfPartitions.add(new TopicPartition("IssueTopic", i)); } consumer.assign(listOfPartitions); consumer.pause(listOfPartitions); consumer.seekToEnd(listOfPartitions); // consumer.resume(listOfPartitions); -- commented out for(int i = 0; i < listOfPartitions.size(); i++) { System.out.println(consumer.position(listOfPartitions.get(i))); } I have created a topic IssueTopic with 3 partitions with a single replica on my single node kafka installation (0.10.1.0) The behavior noticed for Kafka client 0.10.1.0 as against Kafka client 0.10.0.1 A) Initially when there are no messages on IssueTopic running the above program returns 0.10.1.0 0.10.0.1 0 0 0 0 0 0 B) Next I send 6 messages and see that the messages have been evenly distributed across the three partitions. Running the above program now returns 0.10.1.0 0.10.0.1 0 2 0 2 2 2 Clearly there is a difference in behavior for the 2 clients. Now after seekToEnd call if I make a call to resume (uncomment the resume call in code above) then the behavior is 0.10.1.0 0.10.0.1 2 2 2 2 2 2 This is an issue I came across when using the spark kafka integration for 0.10. When I use kafka 0.10.1.0 I started seeing this issue. I had raised a pull request to resolve that issue [SPARK-18779] but when looking at the kafka client implementation/documentation now it seems the issue is with kafka and not with spark. There does not seem to be any documentation which specifies/implies that we need to call resume after seekToEnd for position to return the correct value. Also there is a clear difference in the behavior in the two kafka client implementations. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
