Hi all, First time testing kafka with brand new cluster.
Running into an issue that i do not understand. Server started up fine but I get error when trying to create a topic. *[achan@server1 ~]$ ps -ef | grep -i kafka* *root 6507 1 0 15:42 ? 00:00:00 sudo /opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/kafka-server-start.sh /opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/config/server.properties* *root 6508 6507 0 15:42 ? 00:00:36 java -Xmx1G -Xms1G -server -XX:+UseParNewGC -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSClassUnloadingEnabled -XX:+CMSScavengeBeforeRemark -XX:+DisableExplicitGC -Djava.awt.headless=true -Xloggc:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../logs/kafkaServer-gc.log -verbose:gc -XX:+PrintGCDetails -XX:+PrintGCDateStamps -XX:+PrintGCTimeStamps -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=server1 -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.authenticate=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.ssl=false -Dcom.sun.management.jmxremote.port=9994 -Dkafka.logs.dir=/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../logs -Dlog4j.configuration=file:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../config/log4j.properties -cp :/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../core/build/dependant-libs-2.10.4*/*.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../examples/build/libs//kafka-examples*.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../contrib/hadoop-consumer/build/libs//kafka-hadoop-consumer*.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../contrib/hadoop-producer/build/libs//kafka-hadoop-producer*.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../clients/build/libs/kafka-clients*.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/jopt-simple-3.2.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1-javadoc.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1-scaladoc.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1-sources.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1-test.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/kafka-clients-0.8.2.1.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/log4j-1.2.16.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/lz4-1.2.0.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/metrics-core-2.2.0.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/scala-library-2.10.4.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/slf4j-api-1.7.6.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/slf4j-log4j12-1.6.1.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/snappy-java-1.1.1.6.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/zkclient-0.3.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../libs/zookeeper-3.4.6.jar:/opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/../core/build/libs/kafka_2.10*.jar kafka.Kafka /opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/config/server.properties* *[achan@server1 ~]$ sudo /opt/kafka_2.10-0.8.2.1/bin/kafka-topics.sh --create –zookeeper server1:2181 –partition 3 –replica 0 –topic test.logs* *[sudo] password for achan:* *Error: Exception thrown by the agent : java.rmi.server.ExportException: Port already in use: 9994; nested exception is:* * java.net.BindException: Address already in use* I have pretty much the manila kakfa-run-class.sh except i added the following *export JMX_PORT=9994* (near the top of the file) and *Djava.rmi.server.hostname=sever1* (to the KAFKA_JMX_OPTS) JMX monitoring is working perfectly on 9994. Has anyone else run into this issue? Thanks -- Allen Michael Chan
