Rajini Sivaram created KAFKA-7193: ------------------------------------- Summary: ZooKeeper client times out with localhost due to random choice of ipv4/ipv6 Key: KAFKA-7193 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-7193 Project: Kafka Issue Type: Bug Components: zkclient Affects Versions: 2.0.0 Reporter: Rajini Sivaram Assignee: Rajini Sivaram
ZooKeeper client from version 3.4.13 doesn't handle connections to `localhost` very well. If ZooKeeper is started on 127.0.0.1 on a machine that has both ipv4 and ipv6 and a client is created using `localhost` rather than the IP address in the connection string, ZooKeeper client attempts to connect to ipv4 or ipv6 randomly with a fixed one second backoff if connection fails. With the default 6 second connection timeout in Kafka, this can result in client connection failures if ipv6 is chosen in consecutive address selections. Streams tests are failing intermittently as a result of this. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.6.3#76005)
