Hi All,

We are facing identical problem as described in thread
https://www.mail-archive.com/dev@samza.apache.org/msg06740.html

Here - Samza is requesting for an Kafka partition offset that is too old
(i.e Kafka log has moved ahead). We are setting the property
*consumer.auto.offset.reset
to smallest* and therefore expecting that Samza will reset its checkpoint
to earliest available partition offset in such a scenario. But that is not
happening  we are getting exceptions of this form continually:

INFO [2018-08-21 19:26:20,924] [U:669,F:454,T:1,123,M:2,658]

refreshing brokers for Topic3-0:
org.apache.kafka.common.errors.OffsetOutOfRangeException: The requested
offset is not within the range of offsets maintained by the server..
Retrying.

*Version Details:*

*Samza: 2.11-0.14.1*
*Kafka Client: 1.1.0 *
*Kafka Server: 1.1.0 Scala 2.11 *


Browsing through the code, it appears that GetOffset::isValidOffset should
be able to catch the exception OffsetOutOfRangeException and convert it to
a false value. But it appears that this not happening. Could there be a
mismatch in package of the Exception? This class is catching the
exception import kafka.common.OffsetOutOfRangeException, but from logs, it
appears that the package of this class different. Could this be the reason?

 def isValidOffset(consumer: DefaultFetchSimpleConsumer, topicAndPartition:
> TopicAndPartition, offset: String) = {

    info("Validating offset %s for topic and partition %s" format (offset,
> topicAndPartition))

    try {

      val messages = consumer.defaultFetch((topicAndPartition,
> offset.toLong))

      if (messages.hasError) {


> KafkaUtil.maybeThrowException(messages.error(topicAndPartition.topic,
> topicAndPartition.partition).exception())

      }

      info("Able to successfully read from offset %s for topic and
> partition %s. Using it to instantiate consumer." format (offset,
> topicAndPartition))

      true

    } catch {

      case e: OffsetOutOfRangeException => false

    }

  }


Also, it Appears that BrokerProxy class - the caller of GetOffset would
print a log ("*It appears that...*") in case it gets a false value, but it
is not logging this line (indicating that some Exception generated in
GetOffset method is going uncaught and being propagated up):


  def addTopicPartition(tp: TopicAndPartition, nextOffset: Option[String])
> = {

    debug("Adding new topic and partition %s to queue for %s" format (tp,
> host))

    if (nextOffsets.asJava.containsKey(tp)) {

      toss("Already consuming TopicPartition %s" format tp)

    }

    val offset = if (nextOffset.isDefined &&
> offsetGetter.isValidOffset(simpleConsumer, tp, nextOffset.get)) {

      nextOffset

        .get

        .toLong

    } else {

      warn("It appears that we received an invalid or empty offset %s for
> %s. Attempting to use Kafka's auto.offset.reset setting. This can result in
> data loss if processing continues." format (nextOffset, tp))

      offsetGetter.getResetOffset(simpleConsumer, tp)

    }

    debug("Got offset %s for new topic and partition %s." format (offset,
> tp))

    nextOffsets += tp -> offset

    metrics.topicPartitions.get((host, port)).set(nextOffsets.size)

  }


*Could this be due to mismatch in Kafka client library version that we are
using? Is there are commended Kafka client version we should use with Samza
0.14.1 (assuming that Kafka server is 1.x)?*
Any help regarding this will be greatly appreciated.
