Hi Team, I am trying with Kafka client on Windows 7 64bit -corporate pc which is backed by proxy and Kafka is hosted in Ubuntu 12.04. This is my code:
Properties props = new Properties(); props.put("metadata.broker.list", "10.10.10.10:9092"); //Example IP props.put("serializer.class", "kafka.serializer.StringEncoder"); props.put("request.required.acks", "1"); ProducerConfig config = new ProducerConfig(props); Producer<String, String> producer = new Producer<String, String>(config); But I am getting this error: log4j:WARN No appenders could be found for logger (kafka.utils.VerifiableProperties). log4j:WARN Please initialize the log4j system properly. log4j:WARN See http://logging.apache.org/log4j/1.2/faq.html#noconfig for more info.
