Yes. I have 3 kafka brokers and I have created one topic with 1 partition and 1 replication (default options). All params are default. I was testing it with heavy load and had a storm reading from this and suddenly the messages stop. kafka's list topics script files then show the leader as -1.
I got the same error even with 2 partitions and default replication.
